Where to be in Spain during the Winter season

For those of us who haven’t lived our whole lifes in Spain, it might be difficult to realize that there are cold and warm parts of this country. Why? Because we grow up seeing and hearing news regarding it, and they all promote the good weather that Spain has and seeing so many photos of its beautiful beaches, all year round, is giving us the impression that there is no such thing as SNOW around here, but of course, we are wrong!

November has just begun and the North of Spain is covered in snow and, in case you are a winter sports lover, there are also skiing resorts!

But, where are all these photos with sunny beaches taken in the winter season then?  There are  parts of Spain with more than 300days of Sun per year which makes you feel like summer is a never ending season and here are some of the most visited ones:

Barcelona, which is acutally the 4th most visited city in Europe, can be visited anytime during the year. You might not be able to check the water, but everything else is possible and visiting it during the low season time is perfect for those of you who don’t like very very crowded places or too high temperatures. During November, the temperature can still get up to 20 degrees and the Sun is shining almost everyday! The city is fullfilled with restaurants, markets with fresh meat, veggies or fruits and all kind of cultural events which can help you experience the Spanish lifesyle in a few days.

Ibiza, everyone knows about it! It’s always warm and it’s the perfect place for party lovers. During the summer, the fun never ends and wherever you go, you’ll always be sourrounded by music. During the winter time, there are of course less parties, but there is always one for everyone. It’s known that many people from the Nordic countries are visiting it at anytime because of it’s warm enviorment: weather, people and parties! What could you wish for more when this is all you want and when your favourite DJ is playing music for you?

Costa Blanca, where cities like Alicante or Valencia are and of course, many other small towns and communities, is always receiving the nice and warm touch of the Sun! The temperatures can still reach 25 degrees during November and most of the times, you can celebrate the Christmas on the beach, which is like a dream come true for the ones who always had snow or cold wather during December. This part of Spain is populated with many internationals, from which British and Russians the most, so it’s not that hard to find your way through the small towns if you don’t speak Spanish and the beaches are brilliant!
