When to go
The resort season on the Mediterranean coast of Spain, including Catalonia, begins quite late – in June. Only in the south, in Andalusia, do they start swimming in May. But the season lasts until October.
If you don’t like the heat, it’s better to come in the “velvet season” – in September or October, since in July-August the air temperature on the coast is above +30 °C. Spring and autumn are best suited for excursions.
On the Atlantic coast, the sea is cooler, but by August it warms up to +22 °C. The best time for vacation is July, August and early September.
You can vacation in the Canaries at any time of the year.The ski season in Spain is from the end of November to the beginning of March.
An interesting feature of the country is its rich holiday and festival life. No matter when you come to Spain, there will definitely be a festival or a local holiday in some city. Perhaps with original and even extreme traditions, like in Pamplona, Navarre, where the crowd runs away from the bulls. It is simply impossible to list all the Spanish holidays. Spain is one of the world’s centers of event tourism, so it makes sense to find out before your trip – where they are celebrating what now, where a festival or carnival is. It will definitely be fun and interesting there.
