Spain’s Mediterranean climate brings hot, dry summers (June to August) and cool, wet winters (December to February, making spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November) the best time for exploring Spain in all its glory.
Spring is synonymous with warm weather and abundant fiestas, as well as the celebrated Semana Santa (Holy Week) festivities. It’s easy to fall in love with Spain when almond blossoms cloak terraced hillsides. The countryside is not the only thing in full swing, with cities like Madrid and Barcelona bursting to life with colour and charisma.
Pleasant temperatures, the start of wine harvest and thinning crowds make autumn sightseeing the most enjoyable. Sip a delicious local drop as you drink in the colour-changing landscapes around you.
Spanish summer heat can be overbearing, but if you pack light clothing and travel at a leisurely pace, a summer visit can be idyllic. Explore dreamy coastal towns and visit lively tapas bars, luring you in for another serving of Iberico ham, patatas bravas or sizzling garlic prawns.
