Cozy start to autumn in Port d'Andratx: clouds, mild air and a fresh breeze

Cozy start to autumn in Port d'Andratx

September 17 begins in Port d'Andratx with a sky that tells more stories than the sun: densely clouded, but harmless. No dramatic gusts, no rain — just lots of clouds and that special, almost Mediterranean mildness that is so appreciated here in autumn. A day for strolling along the Passeig del Moll, counting the boats and listening to the distant clack of the ropes, much like on Mild Sunday in Port d'Andratx: Autumn sunshine and sea air (20 September 2025).

Temperatures you'll enjoy

Thermometers stay in a very moderate range during the day: around 24 °C in the morning, about 26 °C during the day and it remains pleasantly warm at night with roughly 25 °C. Due to slightly higher humidity the air feels a little warmer — you notice it on shirt sleeves that don't really want to get cold. For trips into the Serra de Tramuntana the weather is thus ideal: not too hot, no harsh sunlight — ideal for exploring the Serra de Tramuntana World Heritage Site.

Air pressure, humidity and the gentle breeze

Air pressure is around 1022 hPa, humidity at about 74 %. The wind blows from the southeast (about 137–140°) with moderate 2.8 m/s and occasional gusts around 3.0 m/s. For sailors and small boats this means rather leisurely conditions; for a contrast see Port d'Andratx: Light Rain and Fresh Breezes on October 6, 2025. The palm leaves rustle softly, and the breeze is especially noticeable at the breakwater — the kind of wind that brings a little salt into the air on Mallorca without being bothersome.

Clouds, chance of rain and practical tips

Cloud cover is estimated to be high — around 89 % — yet the probability of rain is practically 0 %. You can safely leave the umbrella at home; for official updates consult AEMET weather forecasts. A thin jacket or light sweater is more recommendable for the evening, especially at the harbor or on the Passeig del Moll where the breeze intensifies and the scent of sea and freshly oiled wood hangs in the air.

A small local impression: As early as 08:00 fishermen were repairing nets on the Carrer del Port, while next door at the café on the Plaça Mestre a few locals sat with espresso and the newspaper. The clinking of cups and the low murmur of conversations belong to such mornings — a familiar sound that makes the day feel warmer than the thermometer.

For walkers today is ideal weather: tuck sunglasses into your bag, but also bring a light layer against the evening breeze. Photographers will enjoy the soft light from the clouds that pleasantly emphasizes colors and contours in the harbor. Those who want to sail will find calm conditions; families with small children can stroll along the breakwater without having to worry about strong waves.

A small optimistic look ahead: If Atlantic air arrives in the coming days, it could change the weather quickly — more wind, maybe a few showers, as reported in Port d'Andratx: Gentle Autumn Rain and a Mild Breeze at the Harbor. For today, however, it is a calm, mild day in Port d'Andratx that invites you to set tourist hustle aside and enjoy everyday life by the sea. And let's be honest: sometimes days like these are the nicest — clouds over the harbor, a gentle breeze and the leisurely activity of the fishermen, that's Mallorca in its relaxed form.
