July in Mallorca: What's On & Weather

July is one of the hottest months of the year in Mallorca. You can expect an average of 11 hours of sunshine per day and it’s common for temperatures to reach the late twenties and early thirties! In the evenings, the average temperature is 24°C so you certainly won't be needing a jacket. Sunrise is before 07.00 and sunsets are after 21.00 so plenty of opportunity to be soaking up that vitamin-d.

There’s plenty of opportunity to kick back and relax in the sunshine in July, whether it be poolside at one of Mallorca’s handsome hotels or one of the glorious beaches and beach clubs on offer. For those looking for the best events in July here are a few of our top picks.

Classical music festival
Deià International Music Festival will take place at the beloved country house of Son Marroig. Expect a whole range of first-class acts including pianists, violinists, cellists and more. Do make sure to book your tickets in advance as we expect this to be a sell-out.

Local fiesta's & fairs
With summer comes the summer festivals in many of the seaside towns, villages and ports, including Cala Rajada, Port de Pollenca, Port de Soller, Cala Bona, Coll d'en Rebassa, Cala Figuera, Porto Cristo and Portcolom, as they celebrate La Verge del Carme the Patron Saint of sea farers and fishermen. This festival usually comes complete with parades, musical events, and a maritime procession.

Summer evening markets
During the month of July, several coastal towns and villages have planned summer evening markets, offering a delightful opportunity to explore and purchase jewellery, local arts, and crafts. One event that stands out is the Sunset Market in Puerto Portals, which will be held every Wednesday and Thursday starting from July 19th.

Boat trips
It's an impeccable time to be getting up close and personal with the legendary turquoise Mediterranean waters. Explore the scenic coastline by booking onto one of the scheduled boat trips departing from the various ports.

Yacht charters
For an exclusive affair, it's possible to charter your own sailing or motor yacht for the day, a week or longer. There are many options available from different companies around the island, but we recommend booking in advance to find something to suit your needs.

Watersports
Watersports like jet-skiing, flyboarding, wakeboarding, kayaking, paddle boarding, scuba diving and snorkelling are all on the menu at various beaches and ports across the island.

Taste the local wine
A tour and tasting at one of the award-winning vineyards dotted around the island is a wonderful opportunity to learn more about Mallorca’s rich history of wine production and trial some local produce. The perfect activity to escape the sun-loungers in the heat of the day.

Visit a beach club
The Beach clubs are full of bronzed beautiful bodies throughout July. There's a good selection of beach clubs around the island, some take pride in their fun party atmosphere whilst others offer more chilled-out luxury beach-club vibes, so take your pick!

Splash around at a waterpark
On those scorching summer days a waterpark is the perfect place for the whole family to cool down. Wherever you might be in Mallorca, you won't have to travel far to find a good waterpark.

Mingle with the locals at a market
Some of our favourite markets include Artá on a Tuesday, Sineu on a Wednesday and Sóller on a Saturday. It is advised to arrive early in the morning to avoid getting too hot whilst walking around. If it’s fresh, local produce you’re after, then Mercat de l’Olivar in Palma is a wonderful place to get hold of all the tasty culinary treats you could want and is open Monday-Saturday from 07:00 to 14:30 (15:00 on Saturdays).
