Climate in Son Roca / Son Ximelis — Palma's Hillside Urban Fringe
Son Roca and Son Ximelis form a contiguous neighborhood on the northwestern edge of Palma de Mallorca, sitting at around 98 meters above sea level. The district's microclimate is shaped by its elevation above the city center and its northward views toward the Serra de Tramuntana.
The underlying climate follows the Palma pattern: AEMET station B228 at the harbor records 449 mm of annual rainfall for Palma. Son Roca sits higher than the harbor and a little closer to the mountain foothills — hillside locations in Palma tend to see slightly higher winter precipitation and cooler nights than coastal areas. According to T3-Aggregator climate data for Palma, November is the wettest month at around 80 mm; summers remain characteristically dry in Mediterranean fashion.
Summer temperatures in July, per T3-Aggregator climate data, reach a daily high of around 31°C with a daily average of around 26°C. Son Roca's hillside position means it catches less of the bay's sea breeze — on hot summer afternoons it can feel calmer than the waterfront promenade, but also somewhat more humid.
The Bahia de Palma coastline is just a few kilometers from Son Roca, and sea temperatures follow the Palma curve: around 25–26°C in July and around 27°C in August according to T3-Aggregator climate data. Even in October, the sea stays at around 23°C.
Winters are mild: the January daily average sits at around 11°C, and frost is rare.
