...have been invited to stay in a friend's apartment for a week in mid-August. Not been before. Can anyone please advise on how hot it's likely to be? 30C I can cope with, 40C is a different matter...

about 30-35 at the most really, comfy hot if that makes sense?

if you're worried it may be too hot ed i'll go instead.if you do go leave me the keys to your bike for safe keeping, and the garage key so i can sit and drool over it, promise i won't be tempted to take it for a spin.

Parents have a place in spain...and in marbella it can get up to 40 that time of year, sometimes creeps to 41/42.

Chances are it will be around 35-38 possibly hit 40, obviously depends on the weather, if it rains...damn will it rain.

I'd go though, could even rent a bike? I would when I go to spain this year but i'm too young for rentals

About the same as Spain, 28-33, 35 is a really hot day I'd reckon. Being an island you get a nice breeze too. Rent a bike, enduro or trailie, excellent roads across he mountainous centre of the island.

That sounds very pleasant. Mrs doesn't do very hot, so that sounds good.

*shudders at the thought of another road like the one from Marbella to Ronda*

It was 105 (which is 40) once when I was in Mallorca, but that was the hotest in a hundred years so more like 35.

There's a water park near Palma you must go there it's brill and a good way of keeping cool

I think it was callled Weston water park! there's a vertical drop slide there that's the biggest in Euope! Scary and you have to remove your trunks from up your bum after going on it
