Weather in Qui Nhon in November

Shoulder season. November sits in between. You will get good days and you will lose some. You should expect rain on 21 days of the month, which is more days wet than dry.

November ranks 6 of 12 in Qui Nhon: past the worst of the year but short of February, which is the month to book if the dates are open.

Rain on 21 of the month's 30 days, 8 of them heavy. At that frequency a wet-weather backup is not a contingency, it is the itinerary — book the indoor things first and treat the clear days as the bonus. Natural fibres and a second shirt for the day. At 84% nothing dries, including you.

What the averages hide

Averages flatten a month, and this one hides a few things: it never really gets hot: not one day in an average November reaches 30 °C; the day barely swings — 1.4 °C between the overnight low and the afternoon high. Across the twenty years measured, the hottest November day reached 29.5 °C and the coldest night fell to 22.1 °C, and the wettest single day dropped 186 mm — roughly 56% of the month's rain in one day.

November is moderately variable: 95 mm in the driest year against 1072 mm in the wettest, around an average of 335 mm. Roughly two Novembers in three land near that average, and the third does something else entirely.

Wind sits around 19.5 km/h — a steady breeze rather than a nuisance, and welcome on the warmer days, and humidity runs at 84%, high enough to notice on the warm days without dominating them.

How November sits in the year

Temperatures hold steady either side: 28.3 °C in October, 27.1 here, 25.6 in December. Nothing about the timing within the month matters much.

Daylight in November

Qui Nhon sits close enough to the equator that daylight barely moves all year — 11.5 hours in November, against a range of just 1.6 hours across the whole calendar. Sunrise and sunset land at roughly the same time whenever you come.

Sea temperature

The sea sits at about 27.1 °C in November — warm enough that the water offers no relief from the heat. The sea peaks at 29.5 °C in June and bottoms out at 25 °C — water lags the air by a month or two, which is why the best swimming often comes after the best weather.

How busy it gets

Quiet. Few other visitors, cheaper rooms, and a real chance some seasonal operators are shut.

Crowd levels are estimated from climate desirability and school-holiday calendars, not from visitor numbers.

November in Qui Nhon versus nearby

If Qui Nhon is one option among several, the nearby comparison is worth making. Nha Trang is close enough to be a coin toss — within a degree on temperature, 1 day more rain. Hoi An is close enough to be a coin toss — within a degree on temperature, the same number of rain days.

So: November is a compromise. February is 34 points better and is what Qui Nhon is actually like at its best — worth moving the trip for if that is possible, and worth adjusting expectations for if it is not.
