Holiday Weather Guide for Mallorca Spain

If you are travelling to Mallorca in the Spanish Balearic Islands this year, you may be interested to know what sort of climate you can expect. Mallorca (often called Majorca) benefits from a temperate Mediterranean climate, though each season has something unique to offer the prospective visitor. Spring is generally mild and sunny with temperatures in the high 60’s to mid-70’s, summers are hot and sunny with very little rainfall (this is the most popular time for holidays on the island), in the autumn you can expect some thunderstorms and rain but still plenty of sunshine, and in the winter temperature drop somewhat and can be very cool although rarely is frost experienced. All in all Mallorca weather is ideal for holidays for most months of the year although the period May to October is probably the best time to visit, though of course this is when the main resorts can become very crowded, if you are heading to the island for a Mallorca beach holiday then summer time is definately best, if you are planning to tour around the island, sprimg or autumn may be your best bet.
