Alcúdia on August 10: Sun, Sea and a Touch of Summer Evening

Sunny, a bit of harbor romance and the sea as a backdrop

Good morning from Alcúdia. August 10 welcomes us with a mild 23.8 °C in the early hours — exactly the kind of temperature where you can still drink your coffee at the harbor without breaking a sweat. Later the thermometer climbs to around 30.2 °C. Perfect for a dose of sunshine, a generous ice cream and maybe lounging in the shade of the beach palms at Platja d’Alcúdia. This mirrors larger forecasts such as Sun, Warmth and Sea Breeze: Alcúdia Starts the Week Hot.

How the day feels

The morning is pleasantly warm; around midday and early afternoon the perceived temperature is close to 30 °C. If you're sensitive to UV: a sun hat and sunscreen are essential today. In the evening it stays mild — the night still brings a pleasant 26.1 °C. No need to worry: bringing a blanket is optional.

Air, wind and small weather figures

Humidity is around 46%, air pressure about 1020 hPa. A light northeast wind blows at roughly 4.7 m/s, providing a welcome sea breeze. Occasionally stronger gusts are possible, but nothing to spoil the day. Rain? Practically out of the question today — the chance is close to 0%. Local reports like Alcúdia Today: Summer, Gentle Breeze and Playful Clouds describe similar breezy conditions.

If you were out early on the Passeig Marítim this morning, you know the scene: small fishing boats gently rocking, joggers with headphones and the vendor with the first cone of ice cream, setting up his stall punctually at 07:15. These are the moments that make a summer day in Alcúdia such a relaxed start.

Tips for the day

- Use the morning hours: a walk along the harbor or a climb up to Turó de s’Ermita is worth it. The light is soft, the air fresh and photos turn out better than at midday. - Seek shade at noon: between 12 and 16 the sun is strongest — a shady café or the beach pavilion are better options now. - Light clothing is enough: a thin jacket can help in the evening if you sit by the water for a while, but you don't need a windproof layer.

All in all, it's a classic Mallorcan summer day: enough sun to fill the beaches, and enough relief from the breeze so that those who dislike heat can still get through the day comfortably.

And ice cream somehow tastes better in the morning.
