From wine festivals and traditional village fairs to mountain hikes, coastal escapes and long lunches in the sunshine, Mallorca in Autumn has plenty to offer.
Summer may be over, but Mallorca is far from slowing down. In fact, October and November bring some of the most enjoyable weeks of the year.
The beaches are quieter, the temperatures are more comfortable, and the island’s villages come alive with traditional celebrations, seasonal food and local festivals. Meanwhile, the Serra de Tramuntana is at its best for exploring, cycling season is in full swing, and sunny afternoons can still mean a swim in the Mediterranean.
Whether you’re planning your next weekend or simply looking for a reason to get out and explore, here’s what’s happening in Mallorca this autumn.

Dijous Bo, Inca: Mallorca’s Biggest Autumn Fair
18–19 November 2026
If there’s one traditional Mallorcan event to experience this autumn, Dijous Bo deserves a place on your calendar.
Every November, Inca transforms into a lively celebration of the island’s agricultural heritage, bringing together local producers, artisans, food stalls, livestock exhibitions and visitors from across Mallorca.
The main fair takes place on Thursday 19 November, with celebrations beginning the evening before.

Our tip? Take the train from Palma and leave the parking stress behind.
Fira de l’Oliva, Caimari: Celebrating the Olive Harvest
21–22 November 2026
At the foot of the Serra de Tramuntana, the village of Caimari celebrates one of Mallorca’s most important agricultural traditions: olive oil production.
The annual Fira de l’Oliva brings together local producers, traditional demonstrations, artisan markets and opportunities to taste some of the island’s finest olive oils.
It’s also the perfect excuse to spend a day in the mountains. Wander through the village, discover local products and enjoy lunch surrounded by the beautiful Tramuntana landscape.

From the Old Town to Santa Catalina, it’s an opportunity to explore Palma’s dining scene, discover new favourites and enjoy the city at a more relaxed pace.

More Autumn Traditions
Beyond the major festivals, November brings a series of smaller celebrations that are just as worth exploring.
From honey in Llubí and pumpkins in Muro to wild mushrooms in Mancor de la Vall and rice in Sa Pobla, these local fairs offer a glimpse into Mallorca’s food culture and agricultural heritage.
They also make excellent weekend plans, particularly when combined with a visit to one of the island’s smaller towns or countryside restaurants.
Outdoors in Mallorca: Autumn Is the Season
Who says Mallorca is only for summer?
With cooler temperatures, quieter roads and fewer crowds, autumn is arguably one of the best times to experience the island outdoors.
Whether you prefer mountain trails, cycling routes or a peaceful afternoon by the sea, there’s no shortage of ways to make the most of the season.
Hiking in the Serra de Tramuntana
Autumn brings ideal conditions for exploring Mallorca’s most spectacular mountain landscapes.
The Serra de Tramuntana, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, offers everything from gentle countryside walks to more challenging mountain routes, with dramatic scenery and Mediterranean views along the way.
The area around Deià is particularly beautiful, with coastal paths and mountain trails connecting some of Mallorca’s most picturesque villages.
Valldemossa is another favourite, offering scenic routes through olive groves, forests and mountain landscapes.
For something different, explore the trails around Sóller or the countryside surrounding Caimari and Selva.
And the best part? Finishing your hike with a long lunch in a traditional village restaurant.
Mallorca by UTMB: A Weekend for Trail Running Enthusiasts
30 October–1 November 2026
For those who enjoy a bigger outdoor challenge, Mallorca by UTMB returns to the Serra de Tramuntana this autumn.
The international trail-running event brings athletes from around the world to compete across several mountain distances, showcasing some of the island’s most dramatic landscapes.
Even if you’re not participating, it’s an exciting weekend for outdoor enthusiasts and a reminder of Mallorca’s growing reputation as a destination for mountain sports.
Cycling Through Mallorca’s Countryside
Mallorca has long been one of Europe’s favourite cycling destinations, and autumn offers some of the most enjoyable conditions of the year.
Without the intense summer heat, the island’s winding mountain roads and quiet countryside routes become particularly appealing.
Experienced cyclists can tackle the spectacular roads towards Sa Calobra, while routes around Pollença, Alcúdia and the central plains offer alternatives for those who prefer a more leisurely ride.
For a relaxed day out, consider cycling through the countryside around Santa Maria del Camí, Binissalem or Alaró, with a coffee stop along the way.
Just remember that mountain roads can be narrow and weather conditions change quickly at this time of year.
The Calas Are Still Calling
One of Mallorca’s best-kept seasonal pleasures? Autumn beach days.
While the weather isn’t guaranteed, October and even November can still bring beautiful sunny afternoons, and the Mediterranean often remains inviting well into autumn.
Without the summer crowds, some of the island’s most beautiful coves feel completely different.
Cala Llombards, with its turquoise water and dramatic rocky surroundings, is particularly lovely on a calm day.
Cala Mondragó offers beautiful beaches surrounded by natural parkland, making it ideal for combining a coastal walk with time by the sea.
And Cala Deià remains a favourite for its rugged scenery and spectacular coastal setting.
Whether you’re brave enough for a swim or simply want to enjoy the views, autumn is a wonderful time to rediscover Mallorca’s coastline.
Coastal Walks & Slow Sundays
Not every outdoor adventure needs to involve hiking boots or cycling equipment.
Sometimes, the best plan is a simple walk by the sea.
Palma’s waterfront promenade towards Portixol is ideal for a relaxed morning stroll followed by coffee or lunch.
Further north, the coastline around Port de Pollença offers beautiful views across the bay, while the paths around Cala Sant Vicenç provide a more dramatic coastal setting.
And if you fancy combining a walk with a little village exploring, Port de Sóller is always a good idea.
Fresh sea air, fewer crowds and nowhere particular to be. That’s a pretty good Sunday.
Food, Wine & Long Autumn Lunches
Autumn in Mallorca isn’t just about outdoor adventures. It’s also one of the most interesting times of year for food and wine.
The grape harvest has recently finished, olive production is underway, and local markets are filled with seasonal ingredients.
It’s a wonderful time to discover the island’s culinary traditions.
Discover Mallorca’s Wine Country
Autumn is a wonderful time to explore Mallorca’s wine country. With the grape harvest behind us and the vineyards shifting into shades of gold and burgundy, the island’s countryside takes on a different character.
For a taste of Mallorca’s winemaking heritage, visit Bodega Ribas in Consell, one of the island’s oldest wineries, or José L. Ferrer in Binissalem, known for its local grape varieties and historic cellars. For a more intimate countryside experience, Finca Biniagual offers a beautiful setting among vineyards and traditional stone buildings.
Make an afternoon of it by exploring the charming villages of Binissalem and Santa Maria del Camí, stopping for a leisurely lunch at a local restaurant or wandering through their traditional streets. Further north, the countryside around Pollença offers another picturesque setting for autumn drives, rural walks and discovering a quieter side of the island.
Festa del Vi Novell, Santa Maria del Camí
28 November 2026
To round off the wine season, don’t miss the Festa del Vi Novell in Santa Maria del Camí, a traditional celebration welcoming the year’s new wine.
The village comes alive with local wineries, wine tastings, delicious Mallorcan food and live music. One of the festival’s most charming traditions is the decoration of winery entrances with pine branches, marking the arrival of the new vintage.
It’s the perfect excuse to discover Mallorca’s wine culture, meet local producers and enjoy a lively autumn evening in one of the island’s best-known wine villages.
Our tip: Stay for the evening’s wine and tapas celebrations, when local bars and restaurants join the festivities.
New & Noteworthy: Mallorca’s Dining Scene
With the summer rush behind us, Mallorca in Autumn is also an excellent opportunity to revisit favourite restaurants or discover somewhere new.
Gran Hotel Maricel
Overlooking the Bay of Palma, Gran Hotel Maricel has recently entered a new chapter following its rebrand and redesign.
Whether it’s a leisurely lunch at Maricel Restaurant or drinks overlooking the Mediterranean, it’s a beautiful setting for a sunny autumn afternoon.
Capítulo, Palma
Located within the Casa Roca boutique hotel, Capítulo brings a fresh approach to Palma’s dining scene.
Set inside a former stationery shop, the space retains distinctive original details while offering contemporary tapas, artisan coffee and an impressive selection of Mallorcan wines.
A lovely stop while exploring the Old Town.
OSMA – Table Française, Santa Catalina
For something a little different, OSMA brings a touch of French bistro culture to Santa Catalina.
With contemporary French cuisine and an intimate atmosphere, it’s an inviting choice for a relaxed dinner in one of Palma’s liveliest neighbourhoods.
As some restaurants and terraces operate seasonal hours, it’s worth checking opening times before visiting.
Rediscover Mallorca’s Towns & Villages
Autumn is also an ideal time to explore the island without a particular event in mind.
Spend a morning wandering through Valldemossa’s cobbled streets, visit the cafés and boutiques around Sóller’s main square or head to Deià for spectacular views and a leisurely lunch.
Head northeast and you’ll find Artà, a village that feels a world away from the busier coast. Wander its tree-lined squares, stop for coffee on a café terrace and climb up towards the Sant Salvador sanctuary for views over the countryside. It’s the kind of place where an unplanned morning easily turns into a long lunch.
In Palma, the Old Town feels especially inviting at this time of year. Browse independent shops, discover art galleries, stop for coffee or spend an afternoon exploring neighbourhoods you haven’t visited in a while.
Santa Catalina’s market, Palma’s historic streets and the city’s waterfront are all part of the lifestyle that makes Mallorca so appealing beyond the summer months. For more ideas on exploring the city read our Living in Palma guide.
And sometimes, the best discoveries happen when you haven’t planned anything at all.
Mallorca Beyond Summer: A Different Side of Island Living
There’s something special about Mallorca in autumn.
The island settles into a different rhythm. Villages feel more local, the countryside becomes greener after the first rains, and the Mediterranean lifestyle continues without the intensity of the summer season.
For those who live here year-round, it’s a reminder of just how much Mallorca has to offer beyond its beaches.
And for anyone considering making the island home, autumn provides a particularly interesting perspective.
It’s a chance to experience everyday life, discover local communities and explore the different lifestyles offered by Palma, the Southwest, the Tramuntana and Mallorca’s countryside.
At The Agency Mallorca, we believe finding the right home starts with understanding the lifestyle that surrounds it.
Because Mallorca isn’t simply somewhere to spend the summer. Our Luxury Homes in Mallorca for Year Round Living guide explores what to consider when choosing a home for all twelve months.
It’s somewhere to enjoy every season.
