Off-season — lowest travel prices with still acceptable climate.
December in Mallorca is on the cool side — with highs around 17°C it's less suited for a beach holiday, but good for sightseeing away from the high season.
Daytime temperatures reach up to 17°C, cooling to 7°C at night (daily average: 11°C). With 6 sunshine hours per day and 4 rain days (36 mm), this is one of the cloudier months. At 16°C, the water is still quite cool in December — a wetsuit may be useful.
Pack warm clothing and sturdy footwear. Cool temperatures make hiking and cultural trips enjoyable — beaches are off the agenda.
Advent auf Mallorca ist ein Geheimtipp für Ruhesuchende: Palmas Weihnachtsmärkte sind überschaubar, die Altstadtgassen fast leer, die Temperaturen mild genug für einen Mantel-Spaziergang.
