Cala Rajada: Clear Sky and Mild Late Summer on August 31

A clear late-summer day on Mallorca's northeast coast

If you walk tomorrow morning at 8:30 AM along the Cala Rajada promenade, you'll be greeted by an almost cloudless sky and a little music from the sea: the soft lapping of the waves, occasional cries of gulls and the clink of sails in the distance. August 31 promises a late-summer day the island gladly signs off on (see Cala Rajada: clear and warm late-summer sky on August 31, 2025) – warm but not stifling, with a breeze that keeps everything fresh.

Temperatures during the day

The thermometers stay steady: in the morning it's about 24.16 °C, at midday it climbs to around 27.69 °C. In the afternoon the temperature drops slightly to about 26.33 °C, at night a pleasant 25.33 °C remains. These values are perfect for long beach days without the typical late-August sizzle (compare with Cala Rajada on August 25: Lukewarm Late-Summer Day with Sea Breeze).

How the warmth feels

Those watching the "feels-like" values experience about 24.35 °C in the morning, in the afternoon it feels closer to 28.27 °C. In the evening it calms down again to around 25.93 °C. In short: a bikini or swim trunks are more than enough; you can safely leave a jacket at home – perhaps take a light cardigan against the sea wind until sunset.

Air pressure, humidity, wind and sea

Air pressure is around 1013 hPa, humidity about 56% – quite normal and pleasant for Mallorca. The wind blows from south-southeast (about 164°) at roughly 7.9 m/s, with gusts up to nearly 9.8 m/s. For the sailing boats in the bay this is an invitation: small waves, good visibility, and deck repairs are probably unnecessary. Lifeguards and bathers will appreciate the fresh breeze – it keeps the air clear and the amount of salt on the skin moderate.

Clouds, chance of rain and tips for the day

Cloud cover is only about 2%, rain is indicated at 0%. Still: don't forget sunscreen (see WHO information on ultraviolet radiation), the UV index at the end of August is still strong. Anyone planning a coffee at the Plaça will find calm and free seats in the morning; from around 1:00 PM the cafés fill up again, tourists mix with locals and the air smells of espresso and freshly baked ensaimada.

Local tip: the walk to the Capdepera lighthouse at sunset is always worth it. Take a light cardigan – the wind can turn cool in the evening, even though the day remains warm overall. Boat rental companies will likely have spots for afternoon trips, and the promenade is ideal for a relaxed dinner with a sea view.

Conclusion: A day made for beach visits, a relaxed boat tour or a stroll through the old town of Capdepera (see Cala Rajada feels late-summer: sun, sea and mild evenings). Clear skies, a maritime breeze and mild temperatures – late summer on Mallorca could stay like this more often.
