The climate of Formentera (Balearic
Islands / Spain)
Formentera is the smallest of the inhabited islands of the Balearics
which is an archipelago situated east of the Spanish mainland.
Formentera has no international airport. The only way you can reach
the island is by ferry. This is also why only few tourists visit the
island. Large concrete resorts for tourists cannot be found here.
Formentera has a Mediterranean climate with mild winters and warm
summers. The warmest months are July, August and September. During
this period temperatures regularly rise to or even above 30 degrees
Celsius (86.0 degrees Fahrenheit). Rainfall during this period is
fairly uncommon. Spending your summer holiday on Formentera almost
always means you can enjoy dry, sunny and warm weather. During the
winter chances of a shower are higher. This is also the period when
nature flourishes.

More climate information
Climate figures are very useful but don’t present a general impression
of the climate and the eventual weather circumstances within a certain
period. The figures don’t always reflect the chance of wintry weather,
extreme heat or hurricanes. That is why we offer useful extra climate
information for each month of the year:
