Menorca Weather

Weather in MenorcaMenorca has a Mediterranean climate averaging 315 days of sunshine a year. The average summer high temperature is around 30º, which this often rises in the middle of August, and the humidity is usually about 70-77% even in the winter.

Winters here are mild and often sunny, but the high humidity and strong winds that come down through France can sometimes make it feel cold and damp.

Menorca is sometimes called the "windy isle" as there are eight different winds, with the north wind or tramontana being the most prevalent and blowing 150 days a year. Because the island is relatively flat the winds have created a landscape of rolling green hills and broad valleys.

Because of its northern location Menorca is the coolest and the wettest of all the Balearic Islands. The average rainfall on this island is of about 600mm, but it rains more in the interior of the island than on the coast.
