Climate in Cala Rajada — the windy northeast
Cala Rajada sits at the northeastern tip of Mallorca, right on the open sea. The coastline here faces northeast — toward Menorca, which is visible on clear days. That exposure defines the climate: Cala Rajada receives winds from the northeast and east more directly than any other well-known resort on Mallorca.
Rainfall here runs well above Palma levels. According to aggregator climate data for the Capdepera region (the nearest available dataset, roughly 3 km away), the annual average is around 586 mm — compared with approximately 470 mm from AEMET data for Palma. November is the wettest month at around 104 mm. The pattern: Mediterranean autumn low-pressure systems hit this open northeastern coast with no protective mountain barrier to slow them down.
Summers are warm but rarely extreme, thanks to the moderating influence of the sea. July highs come in at around 29°C according to aggregator data — noticeably cooler than inland or along the southwest coast. The daily average is around 25°C. July brings barely 8 mm of rain; the summer months are very dry. Water sports enthusiasts appreciate the location: the steady northeast wind makes this a classic sailing area, and conditions for windsurfing in Cala Rajada are good — though reliable frequency data was not available for this article.
Sea temperatures along the northeast coast follow the Balearic rhythm: around 25°C in July, around 26°C in August according to aggregator data. Even in October the water stays at around 23°C.
Winters are mild. The January daily average sits at around 12°C. On blustery winter days it can feel raw, but frost is rare. Cala Rajada tends to be comparatively quiet in winter — tourist infrastructure is greatly scaled back by then.
Broader regional climate context is provided by the Mallorca Climate Chart. The neighboring town of Capdepera, with its medieval castle and its own distinct climate character at elevation, has a dedicated weather page.
Note on data sources: Climate data for Cala Rajada is derived from the nearest aggregator station, Capdepera (~3 km away), and should be treated as indicative values.
