Ibiza: Weather in December

Avg. 16°C

December in Ibiza is cool, quiet and full of charm – a world away from the summer crowds. While it’s not beach-lounging weather, the island still gets a fair bit of sunshine and offers a cosy, offbeat escape from grey skies back home. It’s the kind of place where you can swap festive madness for peaceful walks, good food and sea views without freezing.

Average temperature and rainfall

Expect daytime temperatures of around 16°C, with cooler nights averaging 9°C – so yes, you’ll need a jumper, but it’s still milder than most places up north. Rain shows up now and then, with around 5 to 6 rainy days in the month, but there are plenty of crisp, clear afternoons too. The sea sits at about 17°C – mostly for paddling, unless you’re one of those brave all-year-round swimmers.

Top reasons to visit Ibiza in December

If your idea of a good time is relaxed cafés, empty beaches and not having to book dinner three weeks in advance, December is spot on. There’s a low-key festive feel in the towns – think twinkly lights, mulled wine and small markets – and plenty of places stay open for the locals. It’s also a brilliant time to explore the countryside without the heat. Whether you fancy a winter walk along the cliffs or just some peace and quiet with a sea view, Ibiza in December is a refreshing change from the usual festive frenzy.
