Your February weather guide
MildWeather in Ibiza in February
Ibiza in February suits a mild-weather break, not a beach holiday built around swimming and heat. Daytime highs average 15°C, nights fall to around 10°C and the sea is cold at 14°C. For a UK traveller, the appeal is spending time outdoors in lighter layers when conditions allow, rather than expecting summer warmth. Go if you enjoy walking and can adapt your plans to rain; choose another month if hot afternoons are the priority.

Within Spain it is 48th of 87 (Spain in February). Against London's average high of 7.9°C in February, Ibiza is 7.2°C warmer by day and 7.9°C warmer at night.
Daytime and night-time in February
The typical February day in Ibiza peaks at 15.1°C, but that is an average: the warmest 10% of days reach 18.2°C or more. Days over 25°C are rare. Nights average 9.9°C; one night in ten drops to 6.8°C or lower, so pack a layer for evenings - it is genuinely cool after dark. Between 1991 and 2020 the hottest February day here reached 21.3°C (2020-02-04) and the coldest night 2.5°C (2015-02-07).
Rain in February
Some rain (4-8 rainy days): about 5 days with 1 mm or more, 25 mm in total. Year to year it varies a lot - the wettest February was 2018 with 116 mm, the driest 2000 with 0 mm. Humidity averages 69%.
Sea temperature in February
The sea averages 14.2°C - too cold for most (under 18°c). Depending on the year it ranges from 13.5°C to 14.8°C. For the warmest sea here, come in August (26.5°C).
Sunshine and daylight
Around 6.2 hours of sunshine a day (estimated from cloud cover), 10.5 hours of daylight: the sun rises about 07:47 and sets about 18:30 local time in mid-February. Average cloud cover is 41%.
Is February a good time to visit Ibiza?
February is not the strongest month here: mild days. The best months for Ibiza on our scoring are July, June, August; months averaging 25°C or more: Jun, Jul, Aug, Sep.
Comfortable for walking, but keep your jacket
The daytime average makes walking a better fit than lying out in swimwear. Warmer days can reach around 18°C or more, but that is a bonus rather than the temperature to plan around. Pack layers you can remove when it feels warm, plus a jacket for evenings: nights average 10°C, and the colder ones fall to around 7°C or below. There is little reason to organise your day around avoiding intense midday heat. Instead, keep outdoor plans flexible and use the warmer part of the day for longer walks. This suits travellers who prefer mild conditions and do not mind dressing for cool evenings.
Useful sunshine, with rain and a cold sea as the catches
February brings about 6.2 hours of sunshine within 10.5 hours of daylight, so there is scope for time outdoors without expecting uninterrupted blue skies. Around 5 rainy days means a waterproof layer is sensible, but rain need not define the whole trip. Leave room to move longer walks to a dry spell rather than fixing every plan in advance. The bigger limitation for a beach-focused visit is the water: at 14.2°C, the sea is cold, not comfortably swimmable. Treat time by the coast as an opportunity to walk or sit out when conditions suit, rather than counting on leisurely dips.
