The weather here is pretty much 10/10 all year round if you like your skies blue and your vibes sunny. When the peak season hits, the island is scorchio, meaning you will spend most of your time hunting for a shaded terrace or diving headfirst into those turquoise waves to cool off. The nights are just as stun, staying warm enough for you to ditch the jacket and enjoy a poah alfresco cocktail while the sea breeze keeps everything feeling golden.

As the seasons shift, the Balearic glow sticks around with more than ideal temperatures that put the UK's winter to shame. Even when the calendar says December, you will often find yourself basking in the sun in just a t-shirt at midday. Rainfall is a rare member of the party that mostly saves its visits for short, sharp bursts in the autumn, ensuring the pine-covered hills stay looking as picturesque as ever for your next set of holibobs.
