There's still quite a lot open including ourselves. Nice time of the year as it's still very pleasant during the day but you might need a jumper at night.

Not much chance really. You might be unlucky and get a couple of cloudy days but it should be just fine. Don't blame me though if it rains for the whole time you are here :-))

You will find the majority of bars and restaurants open, but not so busy as they are in July/August.

Last year October had the worst rain for 50 years or so I was assured, visibility was 100m simply because of the volume of rain, I have lived in the Far East in the Monsoon, and equably comparable.  Also I was told that it rains on a regular basis in October - but not every day , and not anything as frequently as the UK, but still warm during the day, but jeans and a fleece for the evening.

We were there last year 8th - 15th October and one night the storms were horrendous, and bus shelters overturned trees uprooted etc. Just be prepared for the worst!! Some days were really hot though.

that's so weird.
but apparently turkey has only had like 9 days of rain all year.
so hopefully it will stay like that.

I remember that stormy night, I had never seen lightning like it - just a constant battery of paparazzi for hours on end and thunder that rolled and rolled without gaps. Pretty amazing really.

We have been in early to mid October for the last two years and, to be honest, I'm having a job to think of anywhere that was closed. After all the season is officially til 31st October. Also going this year, 7th to 21st.
Ken :D

We always come in October, managed to miss the bad weather last year, but can honestly say that apart from one year when there were a few thunderstorms we have only ever had odd showers.  Maybe we were just lucky!  It is a lovely time of year, and as long as you pack a brolly and a cardigan you should be fine. Enjoy!
