Destination Essentials

Mojacar, with its gloriously sunny climate, invites you throughout the year. For heat-seekers, the period from late June to early September offers blissful hot-weather activities under a swath of over 3000 radiant sunshine hours.

A subtler cool season from November to March brings gentle temperatures from 10 °C to 18 °C, perfect for sightseeing and exploring the town without breakouts of sweltering sweat.

For general outdoor pursuits, both late April to mid July and late September to October offer a satisfying compromise of pleasant temperatures and lesser tourist crowds.

However, if you're planning on embracing Mojacar's vibrant festival calendar, make sure to time your trip with the exciting events such as Easter, San Agustín, Romería de San Isidro, and La Virgen del Rosario.
