Mallorca in September
Great time to visit
September offers the best of both worlds - still-warm seas and sunny skies without August's crushing heat. Crowds thin slightly but it remains expensive, though most agree it's worth it.
Weather
September brings welcome relief as temperatures drop to more comfortable levels while retaining summer's sunshine. The sea stays warm at 25°C from months of heating, making it ideal for swimming. Occasional light showers return, clearing the air and cooling things down.

All Months
May and October hit the sweet spot - warm enough for swimming, cool enough for hiking, and fewer crowds fighting for beach space. Temperatures hover around 23-26°C with reliable sunshine. June brings perfect conditions but marks the start of peak season pricing and crowds. September offers warm seas from summer heating and comfortable temperatures for exploring inland towns. July and August see temperatures climbing to 30°C+ with packed beaches and inflated prices - avoid unless you thrive in heat and chaos. Winter months appeal to cyclists and hikers, with mild 15-18°C days perfect for exploring the Serra de Tramuntana. Many beach restaurants close November through March, but Palma stays lively year-round. Spring brings almond blossoms in February and wildflowers covering the countryside through April.
