When to visit
Calvià sits snugly in the Balearic archipelago, blessing it with supreme Mediterranean conditions. A gateway to year-round family adventure, Calvià soothes the soul with mild winters and invigorates the senses with long, warm, sunny summers.
A trip between May and September promises plenty of sun for beach days and outdoor activities - bear in mind these can be the busiest times. The spring (April to May) and autumn (September to October) seasons still deliver pleasant weather but with fewer holiday-goers, potentially making for a more peaceful family getaway. Do consider term schedules to make sure your getaway is nothing short of perfect.
