Answer
What should I pack for Mallorca in January?
Pack layers rather than heavy winter clothing, because Mallorca can feel mild in the sun and cool in the shade. A jacket, scarf, and comfortable walking shoes are useful, and a hat can help on windy coastal paths. If you plan to stay outside for long stretches, it is better to be ready for changing conditions.
