Autumn Rain in Cala Millor: Walking in Drizzle, Not Umbrella Warnings

Short and Honest: Today it's Autumn in Cala Millor

I had walked along the Passeig around 9 a.m.—the wind had a bite to it, the beach chairs were half-empty and the cafés smelled of coffee and damp wood. It doesn't rain in sheets, but the drizzle stays all day. For those who know the beach only with a sunshade: today it's different, but not automatically bad.

Temperatures that favor jacket weather over bikini weather

The readings stay in a narrow range: early in the morning just over 20 °C, during the day around 23–24 °C, and at night about 21–22 °C. In short: no heat, but also no frost. For me that means: a light jacket, perhaps an umbrella in the backpack, and sturdy shoes in case the sand is softened.

Air, Wind and the Feeling Outside

Humidity sits at around two-thirds — noticeable when you step from a warm café outside. The air pressure is around 1,021 hPa, thus stable; no storm, but also no late-summer high-pressure weather. The wind comes from the east at around 5–7 m/s, with occasional gusts. That makes the perceived temperature a little cooler than the actual air temperature would suggest.

Clouds and Rain: Cloud cover is only partial, yet the probability of rain is close to 100% — that means: anyone going out today without rain protection will get a shower sooner or later. Nothing dramatic, rather the classic, persistent bad weather that the island likes to show in autumn.

What to Do on a Day Like This?

Honestly: the best walks today are short and cozy. A coffee with a view of the sea, then a short stroll along the Avenida, perhaps a museum visit or retreat to a small fish restaurant. Many locals do it this way: fresh air in the morning, tapas and conversation in the afternoon, and no rush in the evening.

Quick practical tips: pack an umbrella and a light rain jacket, shoes that handle sand and moisture, and a plastic bag for wet items in your backpack. If you're traveling by car, expect wet roads and opt for more cautious driving — standing puddles can be uncomfortable.

Brief Conclusion

Cala Millor remains appealing even in drizzle: less hustle, more calm, and that special sea air that isn't as appreciated on clear days. Today is not a day for sun worshipers, but a good day for people who enjoy the slow rhythm of autumn. And yes: a warm drink after the walk makes everything better.

Current figures: Tmin ~20.7 °C, Tmax ~24.1 °C, wind 5–6 m/s, humidity ~65%, probability of precipitation 100%.
