Light, comfortable clothes, closed-toe shoes, sunglasses, and sunscreen are the best choice for a buggy tour in Mallorca, whatever the season.
Most people think the biggest challenge on a buggy tour is driving off-road. It isn’t.
The real mistake? Wearing the wrong clothes.
Mallorca’s weather can change quickly depending on where you’re riding. You might leave the coast in warm sunshine and find yourself climbing into cooler mountain roads just 30 minutes later. A little planning means you can focus on the views instead of wishing you’d brought a jacket.
Here’s exactly what we recommend before your adventure.
Best clothes for every season
The best outfit is one that keeps you comfortable while protecting you from the sun, dust, and changing temperatures.
Spring (March to May)
Spring is one of the best times for a buggy adventure.
Temperatures are usually pleasant, but mornings and evenings can feel cool.
We recommend:
- Lightweight trousers or shorts
- A breathable T-shirt
- A light hoodie or windbreaker
- Sunglasses
- Sunscreen
Summer (June to August)
Summer in Mallorca can easily reach 30°C (86°F) or more, especially during midday.
Choose clothes that help you stay cool without leaving your skin completely exposed to the sun.
Best options:
- Breathable cotton or sportswear
- Shorts or lightweight trousers
- Light-coloured clothing
- Sunglasses with UV protection
- A cap or hat for breaks
Even if it feels hot, avoid wearing swimwear only. You’ll be much more comfortable with lightweight clothing.
Autumn (September to November)
Autumn offers warm days and cooler evenings.
Layers are your best friend.
Bring:
- T-shirt
- Thin jumper or hoodie
- Comfortable trousers
- Light waterproof jacket if rain is forecast
Winter (December to February)
Many visitors are surprised that buggy tours are still enjoyable during winter.
Days are often sunny, but mountain routes can feel chilly.
We suggest:
- Long trousers
- Long-sleeve shirt
- Fleece or light jacket
- Windproof outer layer
- Closed shoes
What shoes should you avoid?
Your shoes matter more than you might think.
A buggy tour isn’t a fashion event. You’ll be driving, stopping at viewpoints, and sometimes walking on uneven ground.
Avoid:
- Flip-flops
- High heels
- Platform sandals
- Slippers
- Shoes with poor grip
Instead, wear:
- Trainers
- Hiking shoes
- Sports shoes
- Comfortable closed-toe footwear
You’ll enjoy the experience much more with shoes that feel secure.
Essentials to bring
- Sunglasses – Protect your eyes from the sun and dust while driving.
- Sunscreen – Mallorca’s sun is strong, even on cooler days.
- A reusable water bottle – Staying hydrated makes the experience much more enjoyable.
- A small backpack – Perfect for carrying your personal belongings.
- Your phone or camera – You’ll want to capture the incredible views.
- Your driving licence – Essential if you’ll be driving the buggy.
Comfort always beats style.
You’ll spend your time enjoying hidden beaches, mountain roads, and incredible viewpoints—not worrying about whether your outfit looks perfect.
