Balearics Information!

The Balearic islands are situated between Spain and the North African coast, as a whole the Islands do get a little more rain than is usual for southern Spain, but in the summer it is often even hotter. In general you can expect pleasant or hot temperature from April to early November.Every summer the Balearics are invaded by a massive multinational force of pleasure-seeking party animals and sun seekers. This is hardly surprising considering what's on offer: fine beaches, relentless sunshine, good food and wild nightlife.
