Winter

9 to 16 °C · about 6 rainy days a month

Highs sit around 16 degrees and lows near 8 to 10, with five or six rain days a month. The cathedral closes early and several sights are closed on Mondays, so the day is shorter.

What to wear: Wear a warm jacket and shoes with grip, since wet stone is slippery.

If it rains

Rain slows the walk but does not close the city. The cathedral, the Almudaina palace, Es Baluard, the Museu de Mallorca, the Miró foundation and the Olivar market are all indoors. Save Bellver Castle and the sea wall for a dry morning.

The rainy-day plan for Palma de Mallorca

If it is hot and sunny

Summer afternoons are hot and the sea wall has little shade, so keep outdoor walking for the morning and after 18:00. The cathedral, the museums and the market work as cool breaks. Carry water and wear a hat.
