What is the weather like in Hobart in November?

November in <link linkType="internal" newTab="true" url="https://" id="QJWO2eL8" shortCodeType="link" relationTo="pages" documentId="6835d08202c52b846e051892" text="Hobart" uid="www.hobart-tours.com" lang="en" /> is mild spring weather, usually around 9°C to 18°C (48°F to 64°F). Days are comfortable for walking and day trips, but evenings still cool off fast, especially near the water and on kunanyi / Mt Wellington.

Does it rain much in Hobart in November?

You should expect some mixed weather rather than constant rain. Hobart can swing from bright sunshine to a brief shower in the same day, so a light waterproof jacket earns its place.

Is November a good time to visit Hobart?

Yes, especially if you want long daylight, workable day-trip weather, and fewer crowds than late December or January. It's one of the easiest months to combine city sightseeing, food stops, and nature.

How crowded is Hobart in November?

Crowds are moderate. Saturdays, Salamanca Market, Bruny Island tours, and clear-weather weekends feel busiest, but the city still has more breathing room than peak summer.

Should I book accommodation early for November?

If you're visiting on a weekend, yes. If your stay runs into December, book even earlier, because summer demand starts building in late November and central rooms tighten first.

Do I need a car in Hobart in November?

Not for the city centre. Hobart is compact and walkable around the waterfront, CBD, and Salamanca. You only really need a car if you want to do DIY day trips to Bruny Island, Port Arthur, or Freycinet.

Is November good for Bruny Island?

Very. Spring wildlife, mild temperatures, and long daylight make November one of the better months for Bruny cruises, food tours, and bird-focused visits.

Can I visit kunanyi / Mt Wellington in November?

Yes, and November is a good month for it. Just remember the summit is colder than the city, often by around 10°C, and wind can make it feel colder again.

What should I pack for Hobart in November?

Bring layers: T-shirts, a sweater or fleece, a light waterproof jacket, walking shoes, sunglasses, and sunscreen. Add a warmer top for evenings, ferry rides, and any time you're heading up the mountain.

Is Salamanca Market worth planning around in November?

Absolutely. It runs every Saturday and is still Hobart's easiest all-in-one hit for produce, gifts, snacks, and people-watching. Go early if you want the best food stalls without long waits.

Are there good food experiences in Hobart in November?

Yes. November lines up well for oysters, Bruny Island cheese, Tasmanian berries, salmon, and the start of crayfish season. It's a very easy month to eat well without building your whole trip around reservations.

Is Hobart expensive in November?

It's usually more affordable than late December and January, but not the cheapest month of the year. Midweek stays are better value; weekends and waterfront rooms start creeping up as summer approaches.

What are the best November day trips from Hobart?

Bruny Island, Port Arthur and the Tasman Peninsula, Huon Valley with Tahune and Hastings Caves, and Freycinet if you don't mind a longer day. November handles all four well.

Is Hobart good for families in November?

Yes. Mild weather helps, and family-friendly options like Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary, Salamanca Market, the Royal Tasmanian Botanical Gardens, and summit trips are easier when days are long and not too hot.

Hobart in November: Weather, crowds, events and day trips

November brings warming days (9°C to 18°C) and over 14 hours of daylight. Hobart Baroque and the Bruny Island Bird Festival add cultural and nature highlights.

Book by: No ticket needed, but reserve nearby brunch spots.
Crowds: Moderate to high on Saturdays.

Offbeat experiences in November

Farm Gate Market

Location: Bathurst Street, Hobart
When: Every Sunday in November, morning trading
Smaller than Salamanca and far more local, with growers, bakers, and coffee regulars rather than souvenir traffic.
Tip: Go hungry and start at the produce end before joining the coffee queue.

Sub-Antarctic Plant House at Royal Tasmanian Botanical Gardens

Location: Royal Tasmanian Botanical Gardens, Queens Domain, Hobart
When: Daily in November, best before noon
A very Hobart detour: cool-climate gardens outside, then a plant collection built around far-south species.
Tip: Do this on a windy day, when outdoor plans feel less appealing.

Lark Cellar Door

Location: 14 Davey Street, Hobart
When: Daily in November, best after 5pm
November evenings still turn cool, which makes a whisky flight near the waterfront feel timed just right.
Tip: Book a tasting slot rather than walking in on Friday or Saturday night.

Cascades Female Factory

Location: 16 Degraves Street, South Hobart
When: Weekdays in November, late morning
The site is quieter than Port Arthur and often lands harder because you can take it in slowly.
Tip: Pair it with Cascade Gardens and save South Hobart for half a day.

Hobart Twilight Market

Location: Long Point, Sandy Bay
When: Fridays in November, evening
Food trucks, local produce, and sunset light over the Derwent make this feel more local than most city markets.
Tip: Arrive before sunset, then stay as the river changes colour.

Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary

Location: 593 Briggs Road, Brighton
When: Daily in November, best mid-morning
Spring is a good time for a wildlife stop if you want Tasmanian devils and wombats without committing a full remote day.
Tip: If you hate crowds, skip school-holiday-style weekend timing and go midweek.

Lead time	What to book	Why & when	Seasonal price change
8–10 weeks ahead	Flights and central hotels for late Nov stays	Book by early September if your trip runs into early December, when summer demand starts building	Late Nov Fridays–Sundays: often +10–20% vs midweek November
3–4 weeks ahead	From Hobart: Bruny Island Full-Day Bus Tour with Eco Wilderness Cruise	Reserve by early November for best weekend choice; clear-weather departures are the first to go	Weekend tour demand can push hotel rates near Kettering and Hobart up 5–10% vs weekday stays

2 weeks ahead	Full-Day Guided City Tour of Hobart & Tickets to MONA	Reserve once your ferry-and-museum day is fixed; Saturdays and cruise-ship days feel busier	City tour pricing is often stable, but Saturday waterfront hotels can run +10–15% vs Tue–Wed
7–10 days ahead	Combo: Hobart Hop-on Hop-off Bus Tour + kunanyi/Mt Wellington Explorer Bus Pass	Book around the clearest forecast window; summit views matter more than squeezing this in last minute	Usually flat, though clear-sky weekends can make last-minute city accommodation 5–10% higher

2–3 days ahead	Casual waterfront cruises, museum slots, and flexible indoor backups	Useful if the forecast turns wet or windy and you need a Plan B	Often flat; some last-minute shoulder-season deals still appear outside weekends

Art and culture lovers

Better in November: You can mix ferry, museum, and evening performance without winter weather cutting the day short.

Solo travelers

Must-experience: Red Decker: Hobart Hop-on Hop-off Bus Tour for easy orientation and flexible stops.
Better in November: The city feels social and walkable, but not yet packed with high-summer groups.

Shopping enthusiasts

Must-experience: Salamanca Market on Saturday morning, then Salamanca Place galleries before lunch. Go early.
Better in November: You get produce, makers, and lighter browsing conditions before December's heavier footfall.

Friends groups

Must-experience: From Hobart: Bruny Island Full-Day Bus Tour with Eco Wilderness Cruise for a full shared day.

Foodies

Must-experience: From Hobart: Bruny Island Full-Day Guided Tour with Gourmet Food. Reserve before weekends disappear.

Adventure seekers

Hobart in November: Your perfect 3-day itinerary

Morning: Catch the MONA ferry from Brooke Street Pier around 9:30am. Sit outside if it's clear; November air is cool, and the Derwent usually feels brisk rather than harsh.
Breakfast: Grab a flat white and pastry at Brooke Street Pier before boarding, or wait and eat at MONA if you prefer a slower start.
Midday: Spend late morning inside MONA, using The O device to shape your route. November is a good month for this because the ferry ride still feels part of the outing, not just a transfer.
Lunch: Book Source Restaurant at MONA if you want a longer meal, or keep it light and save appetite for the city later. Ferry back to Hobart in the mid-afternoon.
Afternoon: Walk Salamanca Place, then head up to Battery Point via Kelly Steps. The sandstone warehouses, cottage lanes, and cooler spring air make this a strong walking slot.
Evening: Eat at Fish Frenzy on Elizabeth Street Pier for Tasmanian salmon or fish and chips, then linger along the waterfront. If you still have energy, stop at Lark Cellar Door on Davey Street for a whisky flight.

Morning: Take the kunanyi / Mt Wellington Explorer Bus or the combo city-and-mountain option. Aim for a clear morning, when summit views over Hobart and the Derwent are cleanest. Bring a jacket; the top can feel about 10°C colder than town.
Breakfast: Before you go up, eat at Pigeon Hole on Goulburn Street. Order a proper breakfast and coffee, because mountain stops are about views, not leisurely food.
Midday: Ride back down and spend time around the CBD and waterfront, or hop on the Red Decker if you want to link together the Royal Tasmanian Botanical Gardens, Cascades Female Factory, and city viewpoints without thinking too hard about buses.
Lunch: If it's Saturday, keep lunch simple at Salamanca Market. Build a picnic from bread, cheese, berries, and something sweet, then eat near the water.
Afternoon: Walk through the Royal Tasmanian Botanical Gardens or the Sub-Antarctic Plant House if the wind picks up. November gives you enough daylight to keep going without rushing.
Evening: Head to North Hobart for dinner. Book Templo or Dier Makr if food is the point of the trip, then finish with a film at State Cinema or a drink nearby.

Morning: Make this your Bruny Island day. If you don't want to drive, book From Hobart: Bruny Island Full-Day Guided Tour with Gourmet Food or From Hobart: Bruny Island Full-Day Bus Tour with Eco Wilderness Cruise. If you are self-driving, leave Hobart early for the 45-minute drive to Kettering, then take the 15–20 minute ferry.
Breakfast: Eat something quick before departure because Bruny days start early. A bakery stop in Hobart works better than gambling on a long sit-down breakfast.
Midday: Choose your version of Bruny. Food-focused travellers should lean into oysters, cheese, honey, and lunch; wildlife-focused travellers should pick the cruise day for seals, dolphins, and coastal rock formations.
Lunch: If you're on the gourmet tour, lunch is handled. If you're self-planning, keep it simple and local rather than trying to squeeze in too many producers.
Afternoon: Fit in The Neck Lookout and, if conditions suit, a short beach walk. November is also the month to pay attention to birdlife if festival events are running.
Evening: Back in Hobart, keep dinner low effort. Waterfront seafood works, or just head to Jackman & McRoss in Battery Point earlier for something lighter if the day ran long.

Best day trips from Hobart in November

Bruny Island

Travel time: About 1.5 hr including drive and ferry
November suits Bruny perfectly: cruises, food stops, birding, and beach walks all fit in one long spring day.

Good month for convict history plus coastal viewpoints, without winter wind making every outdoor stop feel like work.

Huon Valley, Tahune Airwalk, and Hastings Caves

A strong pick if you want forests, caves, and cooler air. Spring greenery makes the drive feel worth the distance.

Long but rewarding in November, especially for hikers who want mild temperatures before Tasmania's peak summer rush.
