Answer

What time of year is it harder to find someone missing on Mallorca beaches?

It can be harder outside the busiest tourist periods, when beaches and promenades are less crowded. Fewer people walking around means fewer witnesses and a lower chance that someone will be recognized quickly. That is especially relevant on larger coastal stretches where movement is spread out.
