When Ten Degrees Become Biting Cold: Why Mallorca's Winters Shouldn't Be Underestimated

Answer

What makes winter on Mallorca feel worse on the coast?

The coast is often more exposed to strong wind, so the perceived temperature drops quickly. On promenades, beaches and open waterfront areas, damp air and wind chill can make even mild days feel uncomfortable. This is especially noticeable on the north and west sides of Mallorca during winter.
