Best Time to Visit Mallorca

Europe · Month-by-month weather, seasons and what to do — from Noura's Destination Finder.

Noura's timing tip: Outside roughly May-October many hotels, beach clubs and resort towns shut down; in peak summer the hairpin road to Sa Calobra and Cap de Formentor clogs, so go early or take the boat or bus.
