Climate

The climate of Majorca is typical of much of the Mediterranean. The summers are very hot, yet in the winter temperatures remain mild and considerably warmer than in Northern Europe. With fewer tourists, the winter is still a good time to visit with reduced rental rates on accommodation.

The ideal time to visit Majorca is in the middle of February when spring is already in the air. The scenery is blessed with the stunning almond blossoms covering the countryside. Longer days, more light and increasing temperatures make spring the ideal time to visit. Rainfall is generally fairly low especially during the summer.
