5 Places To Visit in Spain

 

You may be planning a holiday soon and looking for somewhere in Spain to spend a week in the sun, but you are not sure exactly what part of Spain to head for. Below 5 quick thoughts regards where in Spain to go.

1. Ibiza is an island just off of the North East coast of Spain and it is a beautiful island and is famed for the drink and nightclub culture which attracts a large number of young travellers and holiday makers. If you are looking for a holiday to go clubbing then Ibiza might be the place to go. If you are a party animal then why not try Ibiza.



2. Barcelona has a number of things to offer and to a greater range of people than most places in Spain. Whatever age you are or interests you have, there is something in Barcelona for you to do and see. If you are young there is a very lively bar and nightclub scene down on the waterfront in the evenings. If you are interested in culture Barcelona has dozens of good museums and Gaudi architectural attractions to visit. If you like beach life there is Barcelona beach front and Sitges. If you love sport there are numerous sporting events to try including water-sports, gold and the Nou Camp tour and a live game. If you are interested in shopping there are some great shops, including the massive El Corte department store.

3. Alicante is also an interesting place to hang out for a week ,with Alicante quitier and smaller than Barcelona but quite quaint and a bit cheaper to spend time in. There is more of a community and local atmosphere in Alicante. Alicante is also well served by budget airlines and its own airport. The marina is also nice and the weather tends often to be very pleasant this far south in Spain.

4. Santander is not everyone's first thought when thinking of a place to stay in Spain, particularly with its location on the Northern coast of Spain. Santander though is served with a ferry from the UK leaving from Plymouth, Devon and Santander offers the chance for you to see a different part of Spain culturally.

5. Madrid is an interesting city and as the capital of Spain, there is always a lot going on and plenty to do. There are some wonderful galleries and museums and there can be no better place to try Spanish food than in the capital.
