How to choose your holiday destination in Spain
Spain is smaller than many of the world´s other countries. However, its rich culture and wide range of different holiday options make it a place with many possibilities even if you’re only visiting for a few days. Many tourists want to know how to choose Spain´s best holiday destination, because there are so many places to visit and enjoy. In this article we will try to give you some useful advice on this topic.
Vacation by the sea
One of Spain´s biggest attractions is its coastline. Tourists can choose from several different destinations. If you are looking for exotic locations, the Balearic and Canary Islands are viewed as little short of earthly paradises. In fact, recently released economic reports have rated Mallorca as the best place to live in the world. However, for tourists who would rather have a beach vacation in areas closer to bigger cities, Spain´s Levante region on the Mediterranean coast and the areas along the Andalusian coastline ( especially the Costa del Sol), will not disappoint.
Tourism in the North of Spain
The North of Spain offers one of the most interesting types of culinary and cultural tourism. If you love outdoor activities and you want to explore natural environments then Galicia and the Pyrenees as well as the Basque Country, Cantabria and Asturias are great places to do this. If you like hiking you will find routes adapted to all levels but if you prefer water sports the Atlantic coast has a wide range of windy beaches which are perfect places to try out different sports activities (sailing, windsurfing, etc.).
Visit Inland Spain
Inland Spain is also an attractive tourist destination. Spain´s most traditional cities such as Salamanca, Toledo or Albacete are great places to practice green tourism. You will have unforgettable holidays in this area of Spain thanks to the paved streets, old towns and one-of-a-kind nature reserves.
Must-see cities
All of Spain´s cities are charming in their own special ways. However, there is no doubt that the country´s two biggest cities have such unique personalities that they are two must-see destinations for anyone who wants to have a truly Spanish experience. Both Madrid and Barcelona offer many different tourist activities. As well as places where you can socialize and have a good time by day and by night, if you love cultural tourism there are areas and sites for you such as the Prado Museum, the district of Retiro and the Basilica and Expiatory Church of the Holy Family,etc. This means that you will always have something to do while on holiday.
