Climate at Playa de Palma — Beach on the Bahia de Palma
Playa de Palma stretches as a wide sandy promenade east of Palma along the Bahia de Palma, all the way to El Arenal. The climate is identical to that of the city: AEMET station B228 at the harbor serves as the reference point, with 449 mm of annual rainfall (1981–2010), Mediterranean dryness in summer, and intense autumn precipitation.
What sets it apart from downtown is its direct beachfront location: the sea breeze from the bay reaches the promenade unobstructed. In the afternoons, a reliable westerly wind blows in off the bay — pleasant for beachgoers, though occasionally a nuisance for anyone trying to keep a sun lounger in place. November is the rainiest month (around 79 mm), while July is the driest (around 9 mm).
Water temperatures make Playa de Palma a classic summer beach: around 26°C in July and around 27°C in August, according to aggregated climate data. Even in October the sea remains comfortable for swimmers at around 23°C, while the air begins to cool. May and June are the preferred time for many regulars who want calmer beach weather: daytime highs around 25°C (May) and around 29°C (September), with barely any rain.
In winter the promenade is quiet — the January daily average sits at around 11°C. Winter walks on the beach are perfectly feasible, though occasional stormy days from the southwest bring wind and brief rain showers.
