Last November there were no shacks because of the hotel owner's delaying tactics in taking the allocation system through the legal process. Many shack operators did a great job in providing food and drinks to visitors and deserve a lot of praise for their efforts but as a visitor, it wasn't the true "shack experience".
We were there in November and I think because of the shack situation we would not risk it again.I am sure exactly the same thing will happen this year.

I bet it was more dissapointing for first timers....having heared how good it is to have a lazy day on the beach, sat sipping cold beers at a friendly shack....
I would recommend late November, weather is much more settled and more chance of all the shacks being opened.
Friends talking to "their" shack owner yesterday (we were there) - the day they were leaving after a winter season and were asked if they were coming back next season - end of October they said and the reply was - don't think we will be here as the hassle has already started - shack licence fee has gone up and the hoteliers don't want us here until December as they made more money this year as we were not here.
Make of it what you will - from a shack owner not a mate of a mate.
Personally I thought the beaches ( especially in the south) were much better without the shacks and fewer people about, I loved it and would choose to go again at that time !
We went last November and I have to say it made no differance at all to our days at the beach with out the shacks being up as Gramps said you still get everything you need your food your drinks and your sun bed thats all you need November will be fine candolimlover if it was me go for it Colleen
