Holiday Guide for Majorca

Majorca is one of the Balearic Islands, located in the Mediterranean Sea - 79km from the coast of Valencia.

Types of Holidays in Majorca

Flights to Majorca only take two hours from the UK  so are popular with holidaymakers looking for quick getaways and longer breaks.

Many younger holidaymakers choose to come for a week's holiday in a self-catering apartment as this can work out cheaper. This is usually in the summer months, July, August, and September

Majorca has plenty of nightlife and miles of stunning beaches.

Families may well prefer the out-of-town resorts and villa complexes, which are ideal to relax in and get away from it all.

Best Time to go to Majorca

Majorca is located in the Mediterranean and so enjoys pleasant temperatures all year round. Winters tend to be cooler and wetter but not as cold as many parts of Europe and far better than the British climate.

The summer months of May to October are the time of year to visit. The sun is shining, there is virtually no rain, and all of the best accommodation and tourist facilities are fully open for the tourism season.

Naturally, this means flights and accommodation are more expensive at this time of year, but with such a variety being offered, then you can certainly find something to suit your budget. Good to go in May or October either at half term with the kids

Or if it's just adults as the weather is still great and it's cheaper.
