What is the best time to visit Campos?
Majorca is a bit of a legend when it comes to weather, offering everything from red-hot summer days to crisp, clear winters that are bang-on for exploring. While the sun-seekers will definitely want to land between June and August for maximum tanning potential, the shoulder seasons are a legend for anyone who fancies a bit of hiking or cycling without drowning in sweat.
Spring - Expect pleasant temperatures around 18-22°C and a landscape that’s popping off with wild flowers - perfect for those who want a chill vibe before the crowds arrive.
Summer - This is full-on scorchio territory with temps often hitting the 30°C mark, making it the 10/10 time for lounging on Es Trenc with a cornetto.
Autumn - The sea stays lovely and warm at about 22°C even as the air starts to cool, offering a more laid-back holiday feel and the best light for your holiday snaps.
Winter - It’s a mild affair with highs of 15°C, providing a quiet, peaceful escape that’s ideal for long lunches in the town square and dodging the UK drizzle.
What are the best beaches to visit on your Campos holidays?
Es Trenc - This is the big one, offering three kilometres of wild, undeveloped sand and shallow turquoise water that is perfect for families and sun-worshippers alike.
Sa Rapita - A gorgeous stretch of white sand that’s a bit more "local" and usually less crowded than its famous neighbour, attracting a more chilled-out crowd.
Ses Covetes - Tucked between the rocks and the sand, this little gem is ideal for those who want a quiet spot to tuck into their fave bag of Lays and enjoy the view.
Es Carbo - You’ll have to walk a bit from Colonia de Sant Jordi to get here, which keeps it peaceful and perfect for couples seeking some much-deserved privacy.
