Discover Spain
Over 45 million tourists head to Spain
annually, making it one of the most visited
countries in the world. And with its many
sea ports like Barcelona, Santander or
Bilbao, and Balearic Islands too, then
taking a ferry to Spain is an ideal way to
enjoy the sun, superb food, local wine and
hospitality.
In northern Spain there are splendid
beaches, historic ports along the Bay of
Biscay, lush green valleys and the Picos de
Europa, which are among Spain's highest
peaks, rising abruptly from the sea, and
dotted with quaint mountain villages.
Spain's climate varies from variable in the
north to dry and hot in the south. The best
months are from April to October, although
July and August can be very hot. Things
to see
As well as spending time in the magnificent
cities of Barcelona and Madrid, you should
visit the ancient Spanish capital of Toledo.
The city is dominated by the magnificent
cathedral and Alcazar and is proud of its
collection of paintings by El Greco, who
lived and painted in Toledo.
