We recommend to layer up for chilly conditions in Hjalteyri in November. You could start with thermal underwear or a good base layer to keep your core warm on the cooler days this month. Maybe also add a sweater or fleece, and top it off with a windproof jacket. High rain levels are expected, so pack waterproof gear and an umbrella or poncho. Expect water temperatures of around 5°C (41°F), which is definitely too cold for comfortable swimming. Your luggage space is better used for other items. You can probably leave your sunglasses at home, because sunny days are pretty rare this month.
