My fav time to go to the islands is june as you get longer days and it's still not that packed, but if you prefer another month I would say july or early september.
 
August this year wasn't nearly as busy as I expected it to be. And last year the weather was atrocious in September.
 
i find the best time to go is just before going to bed. you get a right nice night's sleep









sorry......
 
Id reccommend July....not 2 quiet but not 2 busy..........

............less English Boozer louts there than in prime August!
 
Bear in mind that it's a World Cup year too- July should be relatively quiet this year assuming England get past the first group stage as most of the lager louts will either be in Germany or sat at home glued to the telly!

World Cup fears of drop in tourism
[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica]THE World Cup is already casting its long shadow over the tourist season and has set the alarm bells ringing over a possible drop in the number of German tourists visiting the island between June 9 and July 9. But it is not just the Germans who may prefer to stay at home and watch the soccer. There are also fears for British tourists, who along with the Germans form the bulk of visitors to the Balearics.
However, the powers that be are already making contingency plans, such as showing matches live on giant video screens set up on the beaches.
This is just one of the measures being studied by the Balearic government and Turespaña, the State promotional board.
Eduardo Gamero, Balearic director general of tourism promotion, spoke publicly of the situation yesterday.
He said that the focus would be on marketing rather than promoting, and everyone would be involved from tour operators to hoteliers and bar, restaurant and club owners. He was speaking after a meeting with Amparo Fernández, the director of Turespaña, in which they both agreed that the best way of ensuring that there was no major drop in visitors because of the World Cup was to offer them better conditions for enjoying the matches from their favourite holiday resort. This will include giant screens on beaches and other public places :? , and private enterprise will also be invited to take up similar initiatives to add to the World Cup atmosphere in resorts. Gamero warned that there is a drop of visitors during every World Cup, the biggest drop being in the host country. As this year it is Germany and Germans are the second biggest market (after the British), extra precautions should be taken. The Balearics and Turespaña are due to sign a four million euro promotional deal shortly, and while part of it will be used to open up the Polish market, a large slice will be spent in Britain, which has offered poor results for the past two seasons. Given the British love of football, Germany is expected to be a favoured destination this summer. Gamero described his meeting with Fernandez as “positive,” adding that the two organisations will collaborate in various major events such as congresses and golf tournaments.

I was on the island for the last world cup, I had a great time there were people from all the countries. It was not Jamed packed but it was full of real party people. I would not worry and come in late June as I always do. MEET ME AT BORA BORA IN MID JUNE!!!!!:p
 
I've gone the same time two years in a row; last couple days of August and first week-10 days of September.. its good because you still get good weather, but not as packed as I'd imagine it to be in August. I'd probably go again at this time this year too.
 
personally i would say anytime between june to october......you'll have a wicked time. Yes, busy through Aug but funk it, it still the same feeling how ever many people are around ;)
 
Opening weeks were ace last year and the ticket prices were cheaper!

I personally would really like to do the closing parties this year but it was dodgy weather last year!

first week in July I reckon for what you said!
 
Going the beginning of June

I am planning on going from June 6th through the 11th this summer. Will I still have a great time? I don't want it to be too packed but I still want to make sure I have a great time. Let me know if this is an ok week to go????? Thanks!

Whilst I'm a football fan myself - the thought of them putting large screens on the beach for England games sounds abit of a worry to me and sounds like it's asking for trouble abit!

I was there during the last World Cup and Euro 04. Watching the games was a nice break between daytime beach vegetating and nighttime club madness, plus you got to see and meet people from all over the place.
