Autumn: Sep, Oct & Nov
After early–September the region catches its breath – summer crowds disperse, accommodation prices fall and everything quietens down.
Perversely September often brings fine weather. It’s also when the seas are at their warmest.
With attractions still open and boat trips still running, early–autumn is a fabulous time to visit.
