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).
Pleasant temperatures in October mean you can pack light but flexibel pieces. Think cotton t-shirts, comfortable walking shorts, and one warmer layer for evenings. A light sweater or denim jacket works well. Prepare for significant rainfall with proper waterproof clothing and shoes. Expect water temperatures of around 20°C (68°F), which is ideal for taking a refreshing dip. Bring swimwear and consider packing a towel for drying off. Don't forget sun protection, sunglasses, sunscreen, and a hat. These are all good ideas with this much sunshine.
