Perfect weather is subjective. On this map perfect weather has been defined with temperatures between 20°C (68°F) and 29°C (84°F) and not too much precipitation (less than 90 mm (3.5 in) a month).
The weather can swing between comfortable and chilly in November, so flexibility is key. Pack a variety of tops, at least one warm layer, and both shorts and long pants. This gives you options no matter what the day brings. Light rain is possible, so consider bringing a small umbrella or rain jacket. Expect water temperatures of around 6°C (43°F), which is definitely too cold for comfortable swimming. Your luggage space is better used for other items. It won't hurt to bring your sunglasses along, as you'll see some sunny periods.
