TL;DR
Early October in Antalya can still feel summery during the day, but several rainy days are possible. Pack T-shirts and shorts for daytime plus a light jacket, long trousers and trainers for evenings.
Bring a light jacket, long trousers and trainers for the evening. Daytime is still warm enough for T-shirts and shorts, but temperatures feel cooler after sunset.
Be prepared for rain in early October: around four rainy days were reported, followed by a forecast of warmer, clearer weather.
Rain can clear quickly in Antalya, with warm conditions returning about an hour later. A compact rain jacket or umbrella is more useful than heavy cold-weather clothing.
The sea may feel noticeably warmer than the air; one report put the water temperature above 25°C. Packing swimwear is still worthwhile even if rain is forecast.
Rain may fall in the morning or evening and sometimes last until midday, before turning hot again. Keep beach and sightseeing plans flexible, especially in the morning.
