Majorca: Weather in December

Avg. 16°C

December in Majorca is a world away from its summer buzz — and that’s exactly the appeal. The island goes quiet, the pace slows right down, and there's a cosy, festive feel in the air. It’s not a beach break, but it is great for chilled-out getaways, scenic walks and a bit of winter sun without the full UK gloom.

Average temperature and rainfall

Daytime temperatures hover around 15°C, with nights dipping to about 8°C — not exactly tropical, but still a far cry from freezing. You’ll get around 6 rainy days in the month, but many days are bright, crisp and perfectly pleasant. The sea cools to around 17°C — more for scenic views than swims unless you’re the cold-water swimming type.

Top reasons to visit Majorca in December

December is Majorca at its most peaceful. Palma lights up for the festive season with street markets, mulled wine and twinkly lights — all without the madness of bigger Christmas crowds. Coastal paths and mountain trails are perfect for quiet walks, and towns like Valldemossa and Deià feel even more magical with the winter stillness. Plus, with off-season prices and fewer tourists, you can take your time, stretch your budget and really soak it all in. If you're after a no-fuss, festive-flavoured escape with a side of sunshine, December in Majorca fits the bill.
