Mallorca in August
Around 26.5 °C by day, sea 27.1 °C. Warm enough to swim. As busy as the peak.
August on Mallorca is 26.5 °C by day and 27.1 °C in the sea — the warmest water of the year. Load is 5 out of 5, as in July.
August is the worst month for judging the island and the best for finding out whether you can take the heat. Twenty-six and a half degrees is the daily mean rather than the afternoon peak, and in a stone house without air conditioning the difference tells. Everything else in August misleads: everything is open, including what will close in November. Palma scores 5 out of 5 for winter, Pollença 2, Alcúdia 1 — in August none of that is visible, and the only way to see it is in winter.
