Palma, Spain - general information

The duration of an earthly day is determined by the time it takes the Earth to rotate around its axis, and is 24 hours. The consequence of the rotation of the Earth is both the change of day and night, and the fact that when moving from west to east at 15 ° longitude, local solar time, determined by the apparent position of the Sun, increases by 1 hour.
AT Everyday life official local time is used, which differs to a greater or lesser extent from solar time. The entire surface of the Earth is divided into time zones (in other terminology - time zones). Within the same time zone, the same time is used. The boundaries of time zones are determined by considerations of convenience and, as a rule, coincide with interstate or administrative boundaries. The time difference between neighboring time zones is usually one hour, although in some cases the time in neighboring time zones differs by two or more hours. There is also a time shift of 30 or 45 minutes.
For most countries, the entire territory of the country is within the same time zone. The territory of countries extending from west to east for a considerable distance, such as

Velvet season in Mallorca

The velvet season in Mallorca is notable for very moderate temperatures, sunny clear sky and warm water. Such a period on the island is celebrated from mid-September to the end of October. At this time, the bulk of tourists return home, and the beaches become more spacious.

Holiday season in Mallorca

Mallorca is a big island. By the way, it is translated from Spanish as “the biggest”. Each village faithfully honors its traditions and festivities, which are added to the 40 public holidays in Spain. As you may have guessed, this is a huge list. Therefore, it would be more correct to list only the most significant events. So, January 19 and 20 are set aside for celebrations in honor of the patron saint of Mallorca - St. San Sibastian. During these days solemn parades, processions, concerts, theatrical performances and exhibitions. February with the transition to March is a grandiose Carnival preceding Great Lent. The Sa Rua Cavalcade is the most spectacular event of this period. AT Pure Thursday in the capital, magnificent religious processions are held on the "Semanu Santu". In April, the Princess Sofia Trophy sailing regatta starts. And June is notable for the religious event "Corpus Christi" or the feast of the "Corpus Christi", especially its signature "Eagle Dance".

On Christmas Eve on October 24 "Noche Buena" Nativity scenes are staged during the day and mass is celebrated at night.

Climate in Mallorca

The island is located in the zone of dominance of the Mediterranean type of climate, which forms a warm winter and a hot summer. At the height of summer, temperatures are high, but the heat is not exhausting due to the rather mild climate. Winter is moderately wet and quite warm. Mallorca owes such pleasant weather throughout the year to its proximity to the equator.

Mallorca in spring

From March to May, Mallorca sees a sharp increase in daytime temperatures, from 17°C in March to 23°C in May. The nights “behave” differently when it gets colder at sunset. This is an excellent time for sightseeing and holiday programs. In principle, already in April you can go to the beach - you won’t be able to swim, but a good tan at this time is simply guaranteed. Spring in Mallorca is sunnier than autumn, with precipitation decreasing towards the end of the season. By the end of May, the water temperature warms up to 18 °C-20 °C.

Mallorca in summer

In summer, the island is bathed in sunshine for 11 hours a day. Already in June, the thermometer jumps to 27 °C, later reaching 30 °C and 31 °C. Precipitation is quite rare - especially in coastal areas. But here in the mountainous regions from time to time there can be light rains, accompanied by increased cloudiness. Swimming season is in full swing. The water temperature ranges from 23°C in June to 27°C in August. In general, summer is a mini-madness. This applies not only to huge tourist crowds, but also to the highest prices. It is unlikely that it will be possible to find some more or less decent housing at a democratic cost at this time. The best option in this regard will be autumn.

But despite this, Mallorca enjoys up to 7 hours of bright sunshine. True, it becomes frosty closer to the night - the thermometer drops sharply to 7 ° C-8 ° C.
