March in Mallorca is when the island shakes off its winter coat and starts buzzing with life again. The almond blossoms have mostly faded, but the countryside is lush and green, and the days are getting longer, making it a great time for hiking, cycling, or just soaking up the sunshine in a quiet village plaza. The beaches are still mostly empty, perfect for a peaceful walk along the shore, though the sea is a little too chilly for most to swim.
One of the biggest attractions this time of year is Fira del Ram, a massive fair in Palma with roller coasters, bumper cars, and all the sugary treats you’d expect—think churros dipped in thick hot chocolate. Meanwhile, out on the water, the Trofeo Princesa Sofía brings world-class sailors to the Bay of Palma, where sleek boats race across the waves in one of the most prestigious regattas of the season.
With warm afternoons, cool evenings, and just the right balance of local life and visitors, March is a fantastic time to see Mallorca at its most authentic—before the summer crowds roll in.
