Is July 2027 a good month to visit Palma de Mallorca?
Packed — the typical July day in Palma de Mallorca is busier than 78% of its year.
If you are coming for something that only happens in July, that is the trade. If not, January is quieter.
Calm · Lively · Busy · Packed rank a day against Palma de Mallorca's own year — not a headcount.
July is one of Palma de Mallorca's busiest months: hot and dry, around 33°C / 91°F, and Packed on 14 of 31 days.
It depends. The typical July day in Palma de Mallorca is Packed, and 26 of the 31 days in our window run Busy or Packed, so most days feel crowded. Expect around 33 °C by day, with rain on about 3 days. The crowd comes with the school holidays in Germany, the Netherlands and France. Cruise ships call on 26 of the 31 days, 3 at once on Monday 5 July. Late July is the month's quietest stretch in Palma de Mallorca — the typical day at 77%, against 83% in early July. For similar weather with fewer people, come in September or May. The crush is at the cathedral quarter on cruise mornings; the quiet is at Bellver's pinewood.
In short, worth it for the peak buzz, if you can take the crowds.
Among the 12 months we forecast for Palma de Mallorca, July ranks 2nd for crowd pressure. Its heaviest day is Sat 3 Jul, busier than 99% of the year; its lightest is Thu 1 Jul at 60%.
⚠︎ Weekends run heavy — the 3rd, 4th, 10th, 11th, 17th, 18th, 24th, 25th and 31st all sit Busy or Packed. If your dates can flex, a midweek arrival is the single easiest win.
Preparing pays off in a month like this: timed-entry tickets and pre-booked tours turn the queue time into sightseeing time. see the options →
Plan around the heat — around 33°C by day.
Refilling costs nothing and saves the walk to find a shop.

Either side of it, August is busier still.
Weekends run heavy — the 3rd, 4th, 10th, 11th, 17th, 18th, 24th, 25th and 31st all sit Busy or Packed. If your dates can flex, a midweek arrival is the single easiest win.

Can't move the dates? How to avoid the worst crowds
- On the busy days, the walk-up queues for the big sights are the biggest time-sink — a timed-entry ticket skips them, which is where a busy month is won or lost.
Travelling on a busy day?
Timed-entry and skip-the-line tickets turn queue time into sightseeing time — sort them before you fly.
July weather in Palma de Mallorca
Real heat — around 33°C / 91°F by day, so pace the afternoons and carry water, with rain on only about 3 days. The days are long too — close to 15 hours of light — so the evenings stay open for walking once the heat drops.
Book beds and the big-ticket sights well ahead, and start your days by eight — in a month this full, the early hours are the only uncrowded ones.
