February in Mallorca: What's On & Weather

What's the weather like in Mallorca in February?

February feels brighter as it sees an average of eight hours of sunshine per day. The average temperature is 10°C, but highs of 15°C during the day, make it feel a lot warmer than northern Europe at this time of year. Do note the evenings see temperatures drop, often as low as 5°C so pack a warm coat. Sunrise begins at around 08:00 at the start of the month, but just a few weeks later it's more like 07:30, whilst the sun goes down at around 18:30 by the end of February. 

Valentine's Day in Mallorca

Mallorca's hotels tend to create some attractive packages tailored especially for a romantic weekend away. Bottles of bubbly, dinners, spa treatments and more can be on the menu so do take a look at some of the different options to see what might tickle your taste buds. Whether you are looking for a city break or a more rural retreat, Mallorca has it all! So take your pick. 

Foodie February

With it being Valentine's Day this month, celebratory lunches and dinners are of course on the agenda for many. So we thought we should discuss the restaurants on the island. 

Palma is a foodie hub, with an extensive selection of restaurants offering all types of cuisine. We highly recommend trying out one of the modern tapas restaurants, they are becoming a bit of a cult here. 

At the other end of the spectrum, if you head inland there are some wonderful rustic restaurants offering authentic hearty Mediterranean cuisine. 

Hotel dining tends to offer international gastronomy with a dash of Mallorcan flair, or aim for the coastline, especially the ports for some of the islands best fish restaurants!

Cycling in Mallorca

With the island looking its best in February, it should come as no surprise that road bikers are arriving en masse. The Sierra de Tramuntana mountains and the inland plains are popular, so you will likely spot big groups of cyclists out on the roads. If you are looking to come to Mallorca and do a bit of cycling without travelling with your road bike, there are also some great bike hire places around the island, so you can fly hassle free. 

Things to do in Mallorca

Of all the activities featured on our Things To Do page, exploring Mallorca's magnificent landscapes on horseback has to be up there with the best. This is a wonderful opportunity to discover the authentic, wild Mallorca's almond and olive groves, woodlands, steep mountain climbs, picturesque villages and ancient man-made structures. Take a look at our listings for the various companies organising tours on the trails. 

Vineyards in Mallorca

We would encourage you to head inland to check out Mallorca's almond blossom, but whilst you're there it would be rude not to stop and admire the vines too. Mallorca's wines have become increasingly popular in more recent years, and there are plenty of vineyards offering tours and tastings, which is also a great Valentine's Day activity. Various vineyards offer bespoke wine related activities, from train tours to romantic picnics. 

February events in Mallorca

February in Mallorca is full of colourful traditions and seasonal celebrations. The month begins with Carnival, where Palma’s streets come alive with parades, dancing and entertainment, making it a fun event for families. Almond blossom season brings the Fira de la Flor d’Ametler in Son Servera, featuring almond-themed products, crafts, and traditional dances. Villages like Sencelles celebrate their patron saint with parades and fiery ‘Correfocs’. Nature and architecture lovers can also witness the stunning Light Festival at Palma Cathedral, when the sun casts a rare figure-eight pattern across the wall.
