Spring is just a few days away, a great time to visit Spain before the summer crowds arrive. Here are 4 of the best vacation spots in this European country for the month of March.
Spain is known to be one of the busiest European destinations in summer. For a dream vacation away from the crowds and sweltering temperatures of the high season, early spring is the ideal time to visit this country.
Here are the four best places to visit in Spain during the month of March, as chosen by specialist site Condé Nast Traveller.
Since the beginning of spring, the Spanish capital experiences a heat wave, with maximum temperatures of 20 degrees. Madrid’s vast parks bloom and Madrilenians begin to take to the streets until dawn.
With Madrid’s spring weather much milder than the scorching summer, visitors can explore its world-class galleries, Belle Epoque mansions and designer boutiques without breaking a sweat.
Spain’s tiny golden islands off the coast of North Africa are heavenly in early spring. Apart from long, sunny days with temperatures of 21°, there are no signs of high season crowds.
Visitors have a wide choice: the stunning beaches of Lanzarote and its spectacular surfing scenes, the moonscapes of Tenerife, the whitewashed Renaissance palaces of Santa Cruz de la Palma, the plunging gorges of La Gomera and the dormant volcanic craters of Fuencaliente…
In March, Málaga, a city on Spain’s southern coast in Andalusia, is already sunny and warm enough for T-shirts and beach sports, but not quite scorching yet. It deserves a trip in its own right, especially for its gastronomy and creative scene.
Its old town, meanwhile, is home to interesting galleries and craft shops in its squares and side streets, as well as a museum dedicated to Málaga’s most famous son, Picasso.
Spain’s third city celebrates spring in typical Spanish style. The Las Fallas Festival, which lasts a week in March, allows visitors to Valencia to discover a mass of large and satirical papier-mâché sculptures.
At the beginning of spring, the whole city is celebrating: parades, music, spectacular fireworks, not forgetting the trendy Ruzafa district which hosts its own glittering light festival.
