Weather in Spain: Introduction

For many, the reason they come to Spain is because of the weather. Northern Europeans flock to Spain to lie on Spain's famous beaches with supposedly guaranteed sun all day, every day. Spain's weather isn't as simple as that. One of the biggest myths about Spain is that the weather is always good.

It is true that in the summer it will usually be sunny, especially in the south but in most of the rest of the country too. However, as the picture shows, there is never any guarantee! It's also worth noting that July and August can be too hot in so many cities.
