Mallorca This Month

May is the official start of the summer season on the island. Hotels are open and buzzing, beach clubs have rolled out their loungers, and the sea – while still a little nippy – is most definitely swimmable by the end of the month. There’s a public holiday in Spain on 1 May, but after that, Mallorcan schools are in session right through to mid-June. The last of the big family attractions open up across the month too, including the water parks.
