Average temperature and rainfall

Daytime temperatures sit around 24°C, with cooler evenings at about 16°C – ideal for eating out without roasting. You might get the odd shower, but with only 3 or 4 rainy days in the month, it’s mostly clear skies and sunshine. The sea’s still on the fresh side at around 19°C, but definitely swimmable if you’re keen.

Top reasons to visit Ibiza in May

May is a dream for low-key adventurers and early birds. You can explore beaches like Cala Nova or Cala Llenya with hardly anyone around, take a paddleboard out without weaving through crowds, or stroll Ibiza Town without melting in the heat. Beach clubs start opening, a few parties begin to pop off, and the vibe is spot on – sunny, social and just the right level of buzz. If you want Ibiza while it’s still stretching out and warming up, May’s the time to go.
