More about visiting Spain
Pristine beaches, vibrant cities, national parks, soaring mountains - Spain is a country of diverse landscapes and ancient history, wrapped in warm people and delicious food. It’s impossible not to fall in love with Spain; its vibrancy and culture are infectious.
FROM BEACH TO CITY BREAK
Of course, you could be forgiven for thinking a trip to Spain is only for beach holidays and sangria, a stereotype that may be true in some overzealous resorts. But look deeper, and you’ll discover the real Spain, one that will change your perspective on this favourite holiday destination; instead, a country brimming with history and extraordinary destinations.
Whether you want a city break, an island oasis, a coastal village, or an adventure escape, a trip to Spain will deliver in bucket loads.
ROAD TRIPS
Whilst it’s easy to fly into Spain’s most prominent cities for a weekend getaway or to the coast for a holiday, the best way to discover Spain is undoubtedly on a road trip. See as much or as little of everything Spain has to offer, from the Andalusia hilltop villages to spectacular north and south coastlines, with a stop in a breathtaking city like Seville, Barcelona, Valencia, or Madrid.
Rioja in northern Spain and Andalusia in southern Spain are amongst my favourite regions, but Tarragona, Montsant, and Cadiz are equally strong contenders.
SPECTACULAR COASTLINES
Once you’ve seen the history Spain’s towns and cities have to offer, it’s time to head to the coast. The Spanish coastline is over 8,000km long, so there are plenty of seaside destinations to choose from, including villages along the wild waters of the Atlantic and calmer blue waters of the Med. No matter what part of the coast you choose, the beaches are guaranteed to be some of the best in the world.
In fact, Spain’s coastlines are scattered with charming villages and towns, a world of swaying palms and lively beach bars, clifftop hikes, and exceptional beaches.
So, whatever type of getaway matches your travel style, you’re sure to find it somewhere in Spain.
