Average temperature and rainfall

Daytime highs sit around 24°C, with cooler evenings dropping to about 16°C — perfect for layering up in the evening but still rocking shorts by day. Rain is a bit more noticeable now, with 5 to 6 wet days on average, but it's mostly passing showers between blue-sky spells. The sea stays swimmable at around 23°C, so beach days aren’t off the table yet.

Top reasons to visit the Balearic Islands in October

October is ideal if you want the sunshine and a bit of peace. You can still sunbathe, swim and stroll the promenade, but without the queues, noise or heatwaves. Hiking in places like Menorca’s Camí de Cavalls or Majorca’s Tramuntana is a dream, and the food scene is still going strong — just with more locals than tourists. It’s also a great time for road trips, wine tasting and exploring charming towns at your own pace. In short: October’s the laid-back, good-weather holiday you didn’t know you needed.
