If you’re a winter sports lover, January is a perfect time to head out to the Sierra Nevada mountains for some skiing, snowboarding, or fireside tapas. There’s also plenty of snowshoeing and snowmobiling in the Pyrenees and Picos de Europa for different mountain views.The best time to visit Spain is during the spring months of March to May or during the autumn between September and November . The weather in Spain in March can be unpredictable, so you never really know if you need your swim trunks or fleece. But then again, the start of spring is always unpredictable! Spain in April sees the first biggest chance of the year. Although you may encounter the odd shower in northern regions such as Galicia, the overall rainfall in Spain begins to end. As you make your way further south, long warm days become the norm, with temperatures rising to around 24°C, especially in Andalucia. One of the most delightful parts of December in Spain is the vast number of Christmas markets spread throughout the country. These markets are filled with trinkets for sale, delectable bites to eat, and warm drinks galore.

In terms of Spanish culture, November is a great time to visit for the Fiesta de La Almundena , held in Madrid. During this event, you’ll get to experience Spanish culture from long ago and spot Madrileños in their traditional dress! Making up the centre of the fair are a series of individually decorated marquee tents which are temporarily built on the fairground – this gives the celebrations a boundless sense of colour and festivity. Bank holidays in Spain that fall on weekends are sometimes replaced with alternate days (usually on the following Monday) if the regional government so chooses. More recently, however, alternate days have not always been given. Planning a trip to the land of tapas?
