There is no doubt that Madrid and Barcelona are two great destinations in Spain to base your vacation. However, besides these two great cities, Spain boasts many other great destinations that offer a nice mixture of museums, outdoor attractions, beaches, great cuisine and plenty historic sites in abundance!
Santander
Santander is the capital city of the Cantabria region and it’s located on the north coast of Spain overlooking the beautiful waters of Bay of Biscay. It boasts fantastic summer beaches and beach resorts, but also many cultural attractions and historic sites that you can visit such as the city’s cathedral, a zoo, an archaeology museum, and even a king’s summer retreat house!
Andorra
Another perfect for summer getaway is the Andorra in northeast Spain, I tell you Andorra isn’t just a great skiing destination in winter, but it’s also one of the best places to vacation in Spain for nature driven travelers. Like me, of course.
Andorra is really an outdoor’s enthusiast paradise and you’ll be able to enjoy all kinds of outdoor pursuits such as hiking up the mountain slopes, mountain biking and even kayaking!
Toledo
Toledo is located south of Madrid and being just 45 minutes away by train from the capital, yes you heard it right, by train! So you'll be enjoying a great scenery while traveling. This is what makes Toledo one of the top 10 summer destinations in Spain.
Besides is close proximity to Madrid, what makes Toledo such a great summer destination is its Moorish, Jewish and Roman heritage which translates today in visually stunning buildings, city walls and castles. Perhaps there is no quite a destination in Spain like Toledo where you’ll feel as you’re stepping back in time every corner you turn in the city!
