High Season (July and August)

Maximum operating hours for marinas, restaurants, and water-sports facilities, especially in Port de Sóller
Cons & disadvantages
Marina berths in popular ports like Palma and Porto Cristo require booking months in advance
Peak tourist crowds make popular anchorages like Cala d'Or crowded, best to arrive before 2 PM
Higher prices for everything from mooring fees to provisions, consider shoulder season for better value
Shoulder Season (May-June and September-October)
Pros & advantages
Steady winds 12-20 knots with mild temperatures 70-75°F (21-24°C), perfect for longer passages
Reduced marina rates and better availability in premium locations like Puerto Portals
