TL;DR
Travelers in Antalya in late September 2026 treated rain forecasts with caution: a predicted all-day downpour sometimes turned into a sunny day with a short evening shower. Between 12 and 22 September there were two rainy days and one overcast day. In early October the weather became more changeable, with reports of overcast days, intermittent rain and a strong overnight thunderstorm.
In early October 2026 travelers noted that the heat of two weeks earlier was gone: it had become more overcast, with intermittent rain. On 4 October one report described a very strong overnight thunderstorm followed by morning rain, with the weather expected to clear in the afternoon.
Bad weather also affects the sea. According to an early-October 2026 report, on one stormy day the water turned murky and debris washed in, but once the storm passed the sea calmed down and the bottom was visible again.
On 30 September 2026 one participant described the weather as very comfortable in the morning, afternoon and evening, but the forecast already showed rain for the end of the week. Whether it would actually rain, he said, was impossible to predict.
By late September, forecasts were showing heavy rain through the end of the week, so beach plans should include an indoor backup and a last-minute forecast check.
After rain was forecast to continue until night, the outlook switched to two sunny days. Conditions can change quickly, so check hourly forecasts rather than cancelling plans several days ahead.
Rain forecasts in Antalya can be inaccurate: the day may stay sunny, with only a light shower in the evening.
Between 12 and 22 September, travelers noted two rainy days and one cloudy day; another rainy forecast was not treated as certain.
In the Rama area, the morning was overcast with cloud cover in the mountains, and a guide expected rain the following day. Bring a rain jacket for mountain trips even when Antalya city weather is mixed.
After morning rain in Antalya, skies became partly clear while rain returned toward Kemer. Coastal conditions can differ noticeably between nearby resorts.
