There were more gray rainy days than sunny moments. It was cooler than expected, with temperatures around 15 degrees. Not ideal vacation weather for me.
Hugo LopezBeautiful warm days, but also a few rainy days. Temperatures were around 20 degrees, quite pleasant, but perhaps too cold for a beach vacation. So the weather was mixed.
Babette HemmesBright blue skies and sunny days. The temperature was mild and pleasant, between 20 and 25 degrees. Brief showers at the beginning of the month, but generally nice weather!
GeertThe sun was shining brightly and the temperatures were lovely and warm, perfect for a sunny vacation. It was almost cloudy, fantastic.
Marcella DoekhiIn February, the weather in Spain was mild and mild. There were a number of sunny days when you could enjoy terraces. Too chilly for beach, but ideal for sightseeing.
Jesse van ManenPleasant temperatures, lots of sunshine and almost every day perfect for swimming in the beautiful sea. Truly a 5-star experience.
Jasper BaremansPerfect for a vacation where you want to escape the cold. Highly recommended!
Anouk van der WerfWe took a road trip through Spain and stopped at Barcelona, Granada, Seville and Madrid, among other places. We had 1 rain during our 3-week vacation and that was just a few drops. It was really great weather.
