Spain May 5-17. What do I pack? Will it be warm.. shorts, skirts? Or will I need to wear pants during day?

Question

I went to Greece about the same time 2 years ago and the temperature was about 70 degrees. However, the sun was so strong that it felt like 80. Is this the same as in Spain? I am leaving soon so any assistance would be much appreciated!

Answer 1

Equal as greece , but the depend the region, I explain if you are going to Madrid you would feel the warm warmer cause the dont have the wind of the ocean , it would be a little cool on the night cause it surroun by mountain. If you go to the north Barcelona, Asturias or Galicia it would be cool , fresh spring but nice weather not 80 or 90 , on early 70.  On the South Sevilla, Valencia is the same as you feel in greece. Take some shorts with you, a pair of jeans and if you like a long sleeve shirt or a spring jacket for the nights.

Answer 4

Having lived in Spain for 2 years here is a bit of information... It is very warm at this time.  You can go to weather on the internet and type in the town you are going to and get an exact temperature.  You will need a different type of plug adapter for the different type of electric.  Also... When out on the town keep personal items very clost to your body.  They can be very quick at getting something out of the pocket.  Especially if you go to any flea markets.  They have people working together to distract you.  Good luck and have fun! It is beautiful there.  Lots of crazy drivers and traffic circles!!

It really depends on what part of Spain you are going to. If you go south, especially to places like Sevilla, Cordoba,or Granada, get ready to enjoy the strongest sun. The good thing is that is very dry, so it doesn't feel asphyxiating. If you go to Madrid ( where I am from ) it will be around 25- 30 C ( not as bad as the south). The north part, including Barcelona is usually colder and more humid. However, I am sure, you will be fine with shorts and t-shirts anywhere. Have fun!

Answer 6

It depends on where in Spain you're travelling to. In Madrid, normally, you can expect from 20-25ºC during the day 12-15ºC during the night but check the weather cast because we are having a terrible weather now (it has been raining for more than on month! which is not normal) so it's colder than normal. Today and now (Madrid - 1.37 pm we are about 15ºC and I'm wearing a coat and an umbrella. If it doesn't change for that date, you'll even need a pullover and a coat. As we say here, you must dress like an "onion" lol! it means wear a lot of things so that you can put them or take them off in case the temperature changes during the day/night. If you're travelling to the east-south coast it is warmer. Colder in the north... Enjoy and good luck with your choice!
