Travel Themes to Consider

• Costa Hotels in Spain: Spain's eastern coastline (Costa Brava, Costa Blanca) or southern enclaves (Costa del Sol, Costa de la Luz) attract sun worshippers from all over Europe.
• Island Hotels in Spain: The Balearic and Canary Islands offer year-round warmth, watersports and nightlife.

The 10 Best Spanish Destinations for Summer 2026

1. Barcelona (Catalonia)
Gaudí's extravagant modernist architecture, including the Sagrada Família and Park Güell, will impress even the most seasoned traveller. Barcelona's beachfront (Barceloneta) is just steps away from the bustling city centre. Catch high-profile music events like Primavera Sound or neighbourhood celebrations like the Festa Major de Gràcia.

2. Balearic Islands (Majorca, Minorca, Ibiza, Formentera)
Each island has its own flavour: Ibiza for nightlife, Formentera for quiet beaches, Mallorca for a bit of both and Menorca for a laid-back family vibe. Trendy beach clubs, local seafood eateries and fresh produce markets.

3. San Sebastián & the Basque Coast (Basque Country)
Home to some of the highest concentrations of Michelin-starred restaurants in the world, as well as legendary pintxo bars. La Concha Beach's crescent shape and turquoise waters create postcard-perfect views. San Sebastián hosts film festivals, jazz concerts and a sophisticated vibe that blends seamlessly with laid-back beach culture.

4. Seville (Andalusia)
High temperatures, yes - but also irresistible flamenco shows, lively tapas bars and ornate Moorish architecture. The Alcázar Palace, Seville Cathedral and Giralda Tower exude centuries of cultural fusion.
Seville comes alive at night, when locals fill the squares and streets, sipping cold rebujitos under the stars.

5. Costa del Sol (Andalusia)
Over 300 days of sunshine a year, making it a perennial favourite for beach lovers. From budget hotels to upscale marinas in Marbella, there's accommodation to suit every traveller's budget. Explore inland pueblos blancos such as Mijas, with narrow streets perched above dazzling sea views.

6. Valencia & Costa Blanca (Valencian Community)
Valencia's futuristic complex includes a planetarium, an interactive science museum and Europe's largest aquarium (L'Oceanogràfic). Try the authentic rice dish made with local ingredients such as rabbit, chicken or seafood. Beautiful seaside enclaves - Alicante, Benidorm, Calpe - with a lively atmosphere and plenty of water sports.

7. Madrid & Surrounding Area (Central Spain)
World-class art museums (Prado, Reina Sofía, Thyssen-Bornemisza), royal palaces and plazas that bustle late into the night. Markets such as San Miguel or San Antón offer gourmet tapas, exotic cheeses and local wines. UNESCO-protected gems such as Toledo, Segovia or Ávila are within easy reach for a dose of medieval charm.

8. Galicia (Northwest Spain)
A cooler climate, especially appealing during Spain's sweltering summer months, plus rolling hills that give way to rugged Atlantic coastlines. From fresh octopus (pulpo a feira) to shellfish, Galicia's gastronomic scene is a seafood lover's dream. The Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela marks the end of the famous Camino de Santiago pilgrimage.

9. Canary Islands (Tenerife, Gran Canaria, Lanzarote, Fuerteventura, La Palma, etc.)
Blessed with mild weather all year round, perfect for that second (or third) summer feeling. Experience Mars-like terrain in Lanzarote's Timanfaya Park or climb Tenerife's Mount Teide. Surfers flock to Fuerteventura, while boat trips from Los Gigantes or Puerto Rico spot dolphins and pilot whales.

10. Costa Brava (Catalonia)
Landscapes that feel both rugged and impossibly romantic, especially around towns like Begur and Calella de Palafrugell. The influence of Salvador Dalí is strong here - his former home in Portlligat or the Dalí Theatre-Museum in Figueres are must-sees. Whitewashed houses hug turquoise coves, offering fresh catches by day and atmospheric strolls by night.
 

Alicante, Costa Blanca

What events can I expect in the summer of 2026?

Spain is a festival lover's dream, especially in the summer:

• Local fiestas: Each city has its own 'fiesta major' with street parties, fireworks and traditional dances.
• La Tomatina (late August): The famous tomato-throwing festival in Buñol - although it's an optional extra if you like your fun messy!

Spain Cultural highlights you need to live once in your life!

• Noche de San Juan (23-24 June): A widespread beach bonfire party in coastal areas to celebrate the summer solstice.
• Midsummer celebrations: Town squares fill with music and fireworks light up the night sky.
• Sporting events: Catch the big football matches when the season is in full swing, or watch the Vuelta a España cycling race at the end of August.
