Is November a good time to visit Majorca?

November is not the strongest month here: mild days and frequent rain. The best months for Majorca on our scoring are July, August, June; months averaging 25°C or more: Jun, Jul, Aug, Sep.

Mild afternoons, cooler evenings

An average high of 17.8°C makes November comfortable for walking without intense midday heat, but it is not reliably warm enough to spend the day in beachwear. The warmer days can reach 21.1°C or more, so lighter clothing may be useful when the sun comes out. Keep a jumper or light jacket handy rather than packing only for those warmer spells. Nights average 13.5°C, with the coldest sometimes falling to 10.1°C or lower. That makes an extra layer sensible for evenings outdoors. This month suits travellers who prefer mild conditions to heat and do not mind dressing for changes through the day.

Leave room for rain and shorter days

November is a wet month here, with about 8 days recording rain. That does not mean every day is a washout, but a schedule that depends entirely on dry weather is a poor fit. Bring a waterproof jacket and shoes you are comfortable wearing in the wet, and leave outdoor plans easy to rearrange. There are about 4.8 hours of sunshine within 9.8 hours of daylight, so sunshine is still part of the picture without lasting all day. Put longer outdoor plans into the daylight hours and avoid assuming that a mild forecast also means a bright, dry afternoon.

Treat swimming as optional

The sea averages 19.2°C, which is bracing rather than comfortably warm. Its November range of 18°C to 20°C means even a relatively warm year does not turn this into a warm-water swimming month. If you enjoy cooler water, a swim may still appeal, but it should not be the main reason to book. Mild air temperatures also make a dry layer useful when you get out. Majorca makes more sense then for time outdoors with swimming optional than for long days alternating between sunbathing and the sea. If heat is the priority, June, July or August are stronger choices.
