Average temperature across Algeria in November.
Algiers, Oran, Béjaïa
November sees the Mediterranean regime reassert itself - cloudier, wetter and noticeably cooler with daytime highs around 14-18°C and chillier nights. Coastal roads can be slick after heavy rains, but the off-season means quieter museums and lower rates; waterproof layers and sturdy shoes are useful for exploring waterfronts and historical districts.
Tizi Ouzou, Béjaïa, Constantine
November often turns wetter and cooler as Mediterranean frontal systems reach the eastern Tell; daytime highs drop into the low to mid-teens and higher ground can see the first snows. Trails grow muddier and heating returns to village homes; city museums and Constantine’s dramatic caverns are warm, dry alternatives for sightseeing.
Sétif, Batna, M’Sila
November feels distinctly autumnal with chillier days and regular frosts overnight as temperatures drop toward single digits by day. The landscape dries and winds pick up occasionally; winter clothing should be ready if you plan to stay into December and beyond.
Ghardaïa, Timimoun, El Oued, Touggourt
November brings warm daytime weather and cool to chilly nights with temperatures commonly 18-22°C by day; early mornings can be frosty at some elevated pans. The tourist season is in swing: book desert camps and guided excursions early, and bring a warm layer for unexpectedly cold overnight desert temperatures.
Tamanrasset, Djanet, Tassili n’Ajjer
November usually offers crisp, sunny days and rapidly cooling nights, with daytime highs around the mid-teens and nights often close to freezing at high camps. The comfortable daytime conditions are ideal for long hikes and cultural visits in Tamanrasset; thermal layers are essential after sunset.
There are no major festivals or events in Algeria during November to be aware of.
