The Balearic Islands are worth their reputation. In October, we have been enjoying very nice and warm weather, with water around 24°C. These conditions explain why there are still so many sailors around here, from all over Europe: Dutch, German, Norwegian, Swedes, French and from the UK mainly. We have experienced full marinas and anchorage where we could not sneak in.
