With more than 8000 km of coastline, Spain has thousands of beaches, from tiny rocky coves to long strips of golden sand. Which is fabulous, seeing as Spain is also Europe’s sunniest country! The coastal resorts of the Mediterranean enjoy, on average, more than 300 days of sunshine each year – well into the autumn and winter months.
Segovia is a UN World Heritage Site, not simply for the aqueduct, but also for its medieval architecture, from palaces and cathedrals to monasteries and taverns. The provinces of Asturias and Cantabria offer a unique combination of spectacular mountains and fine beaches. From the northern valleys of the Picos de Europa, a ravishingly beautiful little range of lofty limestone peaks and lush high-altitude pastures, it’s just a short drive to superb sandy beaches.
