Climate & weather in November
November is one of the most pleasant months in Hong Kong: drier weather, less humidity, and often clear skies.

Little rain: rainy days are rare, and showers are usually brief.
Activities to do in November
1- Great November Feast: throughout the month, Hong Kong showcases its gastronomy with special restaurant menus, food festivals, and wine tastings. It’s the perfect opportunity to try traditional dim sum as well as modern creations.
2- Spectacular Hikes: cooler temperatures make trails like the Dragon’s Back Trail (ranked among the world’s most beautiful urban hikes) particularly enjoyable. The New Territories, with Tai Mo Shan (Hong Kong’s highest peak), offer incredible views.
3- Stroll along Victoria Harbour: a sunset cruise lets you admire the illuminated skyline, with the Symphony of Lights sound-and-light show every evening at 8 p.m.
4- Islands & Traditional Villages: take the ferry to Lantau to visit the Tian Tan Big Buddha and Po Lin Monastery, or explore Tai O, a fishing village with stilt houses.
5- Culture & Shopping: museums such as the M+ Museum (contemporary art) or the Hong Kong Heritage Museum; Temple Street night markets for local atmosphere, souvenirs, and street food.
6- Sports & Cultural Events: November often features sporting competitions (half-marathons, international tournaments) and contemporary art exhibitions.
