Can you sunbathe in Majorca in December?

Mallorca is not hot in December. You can go to the beach and sunbathe depending on the day. As an average, the daytime temperature is 16 degrees, but at noon it can reach 20 degrees and at night time 5-8 degrees.



While you can technically sit on a beach in Majorca (Mallorca) in December, it is not traditional "sunbathing weather" for most people. The island experiences a mild Mediterranean winter, with average daytime highs around 15°C to 17°C (59°F to 63°F). On a clear, cloudless day, the sun can feel quite warm when you are out of the wind, and you will often see locals and tourists in t-shirts or light sweaters enjoying the "winter sun" on the sand. However, the water temperature is a chilly 15°C, making swimming unappealing for all but the bravest "cold-water plungers." December also brings a higher chance of rain and "Tramuntana" winds, which can make the coastal areas feel quite brisk. If your goal is to lie in a bikini for hours and get a dark tan, December in Majorca will likely disappoint you. But if you enjoy quiet beaches, hiking in the Serra de Tramuntana, and dining al fresco in a light jacket under a heater, it is a beautiful time to visit the island without the summer crowds.
