Short answer

October in Georgia is warm and mild: Tbilisi usually reaches 15-22°C by day, Batumi about 20°C, and the sea cools to around 19-20°C, though rain becomes more frequent. The mountains are already cool, and the first snow may fall at altitude. It is a good month for sightseeing, the Kakheti grape harvest and the Tbilisoba festival.
