Weather in Ibiza
It may not be thought of as an all year round destination, however the Balearic beauty Ibiza will surprise you. Of course, its summer season is renowned for balmy beach parties, al-fresco clubbing and catching those spectacular sunsets, however its other seasons are just as enjoyable. As you can expect temperatures aren’t quite as hot, especially in the winter but the good news is sunshine still makes an appearance over 300 days of the year. As for the rain, you’ll be pleased to know the White Isle is the driest out of its Mediterranean neighbours. So, when is the best time to visit Ibiza? To help you decide, here’s an overview of what to expect each month…

It may not be its prime party season but Ibiza still has plenty of celebrations going on in the winter and we’re not just referring to its events calendar! The White Isle also raves about its pleasant weather and rightly so since it’s much more enjoyable than the UK in January. Temperatures have been known to reach a daily maximum of 16°C and as for rainfall — showers are short-lived and super light, nothing like the downpours we often experience here in the new year.

February in Ibiza may start off on the cool side, however things do tend to gradually heat up as the month goes on. Similar to January, temperatures can reach a daily high of 16°C however it’s worth noting that they can also drop to just 9°C particularly after-dark so we’d suggest packing some warm clothes. The good news is, there’s plenty of indoor spots to keep you warm — Pacha, the world-famous nightclub being one of them as it opens its doors again for the whole of February.
Weather in Ibiza in March
Average Temperature: 13°C
Average Rainfall: 6mm per month
With Spring in the air, Ibiza welcomes warmer days in March. Those days that are perfect for exploring the White Isle and all of the fantastic things it has to offer. From the Ibizan countryside to its picturesque coastline, you’ll have a nice seven hours of sunshine to soak it all up. Temperatures may hover around 13°C however they can creep up to 18°C so sun cream is a must. While there is an average of 6mm of rainfall, things should stay relatively dry thanks to the islands sheltered location.
Weather in Ibiza in April
Average Temperature: 16°C
Average Rainfall: 2mm per month
Things start warming up in more ways than one when it comes to Ibiza in April. The restaurants open their doors, the beach clubs start spinning their decks and the temperature reaches the toasty twenties. That’s more than warm enough for us Brits to get into our favourite swimwear and spend our days sipping cocktails on the beach or by the pool, isn’t it?! If you’re brave enough you might even want a dip in the sea — the water at this time of year is around 16°C. If that’s a little too cold for you, many hotels fortunately have the warmer option of an indoor pool.

By May in Ibiza, you’ve got Summer just around the corner meaning temperatures are seriously on the up! Chances are you’ll be given a real taste of summer as it can sometimes get as hot as 24°C. Not only that, the sunshine hours get longer and the chance of rainfall becomes minimal. As expected, the UV levels also increase so make sure you take extra care of yourself if you’re spending the majority of the day soaking up the sun. Things do cool down quite noticeably on an evening though, so it’s worth popping a jumper or two in your case.
