What time of year is best for a picnic in Mallorca?

The best time for a picnic in Mallorca is during the spring and early autumn months, specifically from April to June and September to October. During these times, the weather is pleasantly warm, with temperatures ranging from the low 20s to the mid-30s Celsius. This allows you to enjoy the beautiful landscapes without the intense heat of summer, which can sometimes soar above 35 degrees. The spring blooms create a vibrant backdrop, with wildflowers dotting the countryside and the island's famous almond trees often still adorned with their delicate blossoms in early April.

In addition to the ideal weather, these seasons also offer a quieter experience as the peak summer tourist crowds have yet to arrive or have begun to disperse. This means you can find more secluded spots in the lovely parks and along the picturesque coastlines. Popular picnic locations include the stunning beaches of Cala Comtessa or the scenic spots in the Tramuntana mountains, where the views are breathtaking and the air is fresh. Don't forget to pack some local delicacies like sobrasada, ensaimada, and fresh fruits to truly savor the Mallorcan culinary experience while enjoying the natural beauty around you.
