Spain: When is the best time to go?

Spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November) are generally considered the best seasons to visit Spain. Temperatures are mild, averaging between 15 and 25 degrees Celsius, which is perfect for exploring historic cities such as Madrid, Barcelona, Granada or Seville. Gardens and national parks are in full bloom, offering picturesque landscapes for walks and hikes.

Summer (June to August) is the peak tourist season in Spain, particularly on the Mediterranean coast. Temperatures can reach 30 degrees Celsius or more, which is ideal for beach lovers. However, tourist numbers are often high and prices can be higher. It is advisable to book your accommodation and tickets in advance during this period.
