Summer Blue in Cala Rajada: Light Breeze, Bright Sun and Sea Air

Summery calm in Cala Rajada

Anyone who strolls along the promenade of Cala Rajada on Tuesday morning first hears the seagulls, then the soft clinking of anchor chains and the distant laughter of children paddling in the sea one more time. The sky is almost cloudless — a day you wish for in high summer: lots of sun, warm air and that specific scent of saltwater and freshly brewed coffee. Local coverage captures this mood in Sunny Summer Day in Cala Rajada: Harbor Air, Seagull Song and a Dip in the Sea.

Temperatures: Pleasant rather than oppressive

The morning starts at around 23°C – cool enough for a walk without sweating, warm enough for the first swim. Daytime highs reach about 27°C, and in the evening it cools only slightly: at around 26°C it remains balmy and invites you to spend the night on the terrace. For locals this is the perfect balance: no heat complaints, just a relaxed summer day where shutters stay half-closed and the lanterns along the harbour promenade slowly light up.

Humidity, wind and hours of sunshine

Humidity sits at a moderate 53%, keeping the warmth pleasant. A light northeast breeze of about 3 m/s sweeps across the bay — just strong enough to make parasols flutter and to temper the heat. Clouds are virtually gone (7%), and the chance of rain is practically zero. Several hours of brilliant sunshine promise ideal conditions for boat trips, snorkeling in the clear coves or a quiet sunbath at Cala Agulla, as noted in Cala Rajada today: Sun, sea and a touch of late summer.

What to do on a day like this?

Make the most of the weather by exploring locally: an early coffee at the harbour, followed by a walk along the seafront promenade, letting your mind wander on a bench in front of the Capdepera lighthouse. The boat rental companies at the harbour offer day trips, often with stops for swimming in hidden coves — the sea is clear and visibility is good.

For lunch a light meal is recommended: fresh fish, a salad or tapas on a shady terrace. The evening continues in a relaxed way — open windows bring in the salty breeze and the voices from the promenade, while paella steams on the squares, a scene reflected in Summer Evening in Cala Rajada: Clear Skies, Mild 27 °C and the Sound of the Sea. A perfect day for families, couples and anyone who wants to experience Mallorca without a heat shock.

What this means for Cala Rajada

Sunny but not oppressive days are a gift for the local community: cafés and restaurants benefit, excursion providers have stable conditions, and neighbours come together again to end the day on the street. Such days blend everyday life and holiday — the sound of e-bikes mixes with chatter in Mallorcan, and for a moment everything seems just right.

So: don't forget sunscreen, pack a light jacket for the evening — and bring the time to enjoy the small harbours, the stone alleys and the sea. A day like this explains pretty well why Mallorca keeps enchanting so many people.
