Climate
What is the weather like in Spain?
Spain, one of the warmest countries in Europe: Spain has a predominantly warm Mediterranean climate, with dry summers and winters with balanced temperatures. Here you can enjoy more than 3,000 hours of sunshine per year. It is no surprise, then, that this is one of the warmest parts of Europe. When talking of weather, special mention should be made of the Canary Islands.
Their special location, facing the coast of Africa, gives them a benign climate with mild temperatures (22ºC year-round average on the coasts), with only small temperature differences between day and night, whatever the season. Nevertheless, variety is the main characteristic of the climate here, due to Spain’s immense geographical diversity.
What type of clothing should I pack?
In Spain, people dress differently according to the season, the place they are going to, and the circumstances. In the interior of Spain, temperatures vary greatly from one season to the next, with very cold winters, and really hot summers. Spanish people don't dress up too much to go out, although of course, it depends on where you are going.
