When is the best time to go to Mallorca?<\/strong> Although summer tends to be the favourite season for many people due to the holiday period, the truth is that the island has plenty to offer outside the hottest months. May, September and October, for example, are excellent times to explore Mallorca without having to endure sweltering temperatures. <\/p>\n Generally speaking, spring and autumn are two particularly interesting seasons in which to travel to Mallorca. The following sections therefore examine the advantages and disadvantages of visiting this Mediterranean island at each time of year. <\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text ul_position=”inside” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ ul_text_align=”left” ul_line_height=”1.5em” background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n To begin with, spring in Mallorca<\/strong> gradually transforms the rhythm of the island. March can still bring some cool and changeable days, but April and, above all, May are much more inviting for spending time outdoors. At this time of year, areas such as Cala d\u2019Or and Santa Ponsa<\/strong> gradually come to life as the start of the season approaches. <\/p>\n <\/p>\n The weather<\/strong> is undoubtedly the key factor. It is therefore always advisable to check the forecast using tools such as AEMET<\/a>, Spain\u2019s national meteorological agency. <\/p>\n For those who ultimately choose this season to visit Mallorca, these are the approximate opening dates of the Fido hotels<\/a>. It is worth remembering, however, that these dates are only a guide and may change depending on the season: <\/p>\n <\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][difl_imagegallery image_size=”large” image_to_display=”2″ admin_label=”Advanced Gallery” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][difl_imagegalleryitem gallery_ids=”16566,15347″ _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/difl_imagegalleryitem][\/difl_imagegallery][et_pb_text ul_position=”inside” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” ul_text_align=”left” ul_line_height=”1.5em” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n First and foremost, one of the main advantages of spring is the temperature<\/strong>. For those who enjoy walking, going on excursions or exploring different parts of Mallorca, this is an excellent time of year. Maximum temperatures in April and May are already well above 20\u00b0C and can occasionally reach 30\u00b0C, meaning the difference compared with places such as England or Germany can be as much as 10 degrees. <\/p>\n Many people choose spring because it allows them to explore the island by bicycle<\/strong>. This is hardly surprising, as the pleasant temperatures at this time of year are ideal for cycling, discovering the Serra de Tramuntana, exploring picturesque inland villages and sitting down to rest on a terrace. <\/p>\n One of the highlights of spring is Easter<\/strong>, which usually marks the beginning of the tourist season on the island.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text ul_position=”inside” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” ul_text_align=”left” ul_line_height=”1.5em” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n However, travelling in spring may not be everyone\u2019s favourite option. The differences between early April and late May are noticeable, especially when the main aim is to spend every day on the beach. <\/p>\n <\/p>\n In any case, if swimming in the sea is not the main priority for those choosing to discover Mallorca, spring will not disappoint.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][difl_imagegallery image_size=”large” image_to_display=”2″ admin_label=”Advanced Gallery” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][difl_imagegalleryitem gallery_ids=”16233,15636″ _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/difl_imagegalleryitem][\/difl_imagegallery][et_pb_text ul_position=”inside” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” ul_text_align=”left” ul_line_height=”1.5em” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Autumn, meanwhile, is one of the best times to travel to Mallorca<\/strong>. The Mediterranean retains the heat accumulated during July and August for several weeks. For this reason, September and October are particularly appealing months for enjoying the beaches, as well as exploring the island\u2019s other attractions. <\/p>\n Maximum temperatures in September<\/strong> still regularly exceed 30\u00b0C, and these temperatures can also be reached in October, although less frequently. For visitors arriving from places such as England or Germany, this can mean a difference of up to 10 degrees, making a trip to Mallorca in autumn particularly tempting. <\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text ul_position=”inside” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” ul_text_align=”left” ul_line_height=”1.5em” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Unlike April or early May, the major advantage of autumn is the sea. September and October are still ideal months for swimming in Mallorca<\/strong>. <\/p>\n However, there is much more to Mallorca in autumn than the beach. From October onwards, for example, it is very common to find stalls or shops selling bu\u00f1uelos<\/strong>, a traditional sweet treat associated with this time of year.<\/p>\n The final weeks of October also have their own special moments. Hotel Fido Punta del Mar in Santa Ponsa<\/a> usually holds Halloween celebrations<\/strong> every year to mark the end of the season. What better way to celebrate than in a decorated hotel surrounded by other people in fancy dress? <\/p>\n<\/h2>\n
