Sóller expects a nearly cloud-free summer day on 31 August 2025

Nearly cloudless: Sóller on 31 August 2025

Good morning from the Tramuntana valley. Sunday, 31 August, shows Sóller from its sunny side (much like Sóller on 10 August 2025: A Classic Mallorcan Summer): the sky will be practically cloud-free and no rain is in sight. On the Plaça the familiar sounds are already mixing – the clatter of chairs, the voices of the older gentlemen commenting on the harbor view, and the distant chug of the old tram to Port de Sóller. Anyone drinking an espresso outside this morning will also notice the lemon and orange groves: a light scent of citrus and sea hangs in the air.

Temperatures and feel

The night was mild, with lows around 22 °C. During the day the thermometer climbs to about 30 °C; towards evening temperatures slowly drop to around 28 °C, and at night they remain at roughly 23 °C. The felt weather matches the measurements: pleasant in the morning, decidedly summery at midday – perfect for beach and lake – and a welcome slight cooling in the late afternoon as the sun lowers.

Wind, humidity and what that means

The air is unusually dry for this time of year at around 41% humidity; that means the warmth doesn't feel sticky. Air pressure is about 1013 hPa. A light southeast wind blows at about 3.9 m/s (gusts up to ~4.8 m/s, direction ~152°) — just enough to create a pleasant breeze at Platja d'en Repic, but not strong enough to endanger parasols. Ideal for beginner sailors or a calm pedal-boat round.

What’s worth doing today

For early risers: breakfast on the Plaça around 9:00 — the tables are still quiet then, and the sun is warm but not hot. Market-goers will find a colorful selection until midday; the stalls close at midday, so better come early. The tram to Port de Sóller is a lovely alternative to the car today, offering relaxed views of the bay, some time to unwind and later a jump into the sea — a rhythm noted in Sóller on August 23: Sunny, Mild and Perfect for Beach and Tram Moments.

If you plan a hike — for example along one of the finca or Puig routes — you don't need heavy gear: a t-shirt, a light jacket for the evening and enough water are enough. The afternoon sun is strong, so don't forget sun protection. For photographers the light around 18:00–19:00 offers nice, warm contrasts: orange groves, the tram on the tracks, and the Tramuntana casting long shadows.

For locals and visitors: small everyday tips

Parking: look for shaded spots — the sun quickly heats up dashboards and seats. Businesses and cafés will appreciate the day: more footfall, relaxed atmosphere, and the outdoor café con leche break is back. The fishermen at the harbor smile: in this weather you catch not only fish but also a good mood.

Active people should avoid the strongest sun at midday; a session before 11:00 or after 17:00 is nicer, and for a contrast see Sóller on 4 September 2025: Cloudy, mild late-summer day to enjoy. And if you want to end the day quietly: a walk along the breakwater in Port de Sóller with a light breeze is almost like a short holiday without going far.

In short: A clear, warm day with a mild breeze, low chance of rain and pleasant dryness — ideal for everything outdoors. Whether coffee on the Plaça, a market visit, a tram ride or a short hike: 31 August invites you to enjoy the sea, the mountains and Sóller's familiar corners.

Enjoy the day in Sóller!
