Summer is definitely here by July, and it's all about the sun, sea and sand for most. Sun worshippers are out in force on Mallorca's beautiful beaches, and there's a real buzz in the air in restaurants and bars on those balmy summer evenings.

Summer peaks in July, and Mallorca shifts up a gear. Beaches fill quickly, while restaurants and bars come alive on warm evenings. Island towns and villages celebrate their summer fiestas, a wonderful chance to experience the more traditional side of the island, and cultural highlights include Deià's International Music Festival in the Serra de Tramuntana.

At peak season, Mallorca is at its busiest. Booking activities, restaurants and events in advance is strongly recommended.
