Port d'Andratx in Late-Summer Glow: Clear, Mild and Perfect for Walks

Port d'Andratx in Late-Summer Glow: Clear, Mild and Perfect for Walks

The promenade of Port d'Andratx looked today as if taken from a picture book: blue sky without a veil, the sparkling of the Mediterranean and the typical sounds of a harbour slowly starting the day — the clatter of nets, the quiet conversations of fishermen and the distant cry of a seagull. Around 9:00 AM I stepped outside briefly: the boats were bobbing, the air smelled of saltwater and orange blossom — a day that naturally makes you slow down a little. A similar harbour scene was documented in Gentle Late Summer in Port d'Andratx: A Harbor Stroll in Mild Temperatures.

The numbers, short and clear

The temperature data for September 16, 2025 paint a very pleasant picture: lows were around 24.3 °C, during the day values climbed to just under 26.6 °C. In the early morning we recorded about 24.4 °C, in the afternoon it hovered around 25.7 °C and roughly 25.0 °C is forecast for the night. So if you wear a T‑shirt today, you are well advised — no one needs to sweat, and certainly no one will freeze.

Air, wind and visibility: a perfect combination

Behind the friendly weather is a stable air pressure of around 1022 hPa, humidity at a pleasant 66%. A light breeze from the east (wind direction approx. 88°) brings freshness from the sea: average wind speeds are around 3.6 m/s, with isolated gusts just over 4 m/s. And the clouds? Practically nonexistent — 0% cloud cover, zero chance of rain. In short: sunglasses on, enjoy the view. These gentle coastal winds were also described in Late-summer Port d'Andratx: Sunlit Hours and Gentle Breeze – 19 September 2025, and official forecasts can be checked at AEMET weather forecasts for Mallorca.

What to do today in Port d'Andratx

Days like this are made for easy, low-key outings. A stroll around the breakwater, a short boat trip to the nearby coves or a walk on the coastal paths toward Cap Andritxol — all things that need little planning and leave plenty of room to enjoy the moment. Particularly lovely is the time around 4:00 PM: the light softens, shadows grow longer, and waterfront cafés often free up their last outdoor tables. An espresso on the pier, a piece of ensaimada — that's all you need.

Practical tips for the day

Even though the day remains mild, the sun is still strong. A hat and enough water are essential if you plan longer walks. My little insider tip: have breakfast on the pier, start the morning relaxed and avoid busier spots around 2:30 PM — then the small coves are often surprisingly empty. For the evening, a light jacket is recommended; about twenty minutes after sunset you will clearly feel the difference in temperature.

Why a day like this is good for Port d'Andratx

These perfect late-summer days bring calm to the harbour. Tomorrow is work, but today belongs to the walkers, the coffee drinkers and the photographers. For local gastronomy and boat rental businesses these mild days are welcome: guests stay longer, terraces fill up quietly, and the community breathes a sigh of relief — tourism without the rush. And for us residents it means a few hours of nature and sea that refresh the mind.

So get out — but be considerate: the sun is friendly but direct. Enjoy the light, listen to the sea and slow the pace down a notch. Port d'Andratx is showing its most charming side today.
