Best time to go to Andalucia

Hot, sunny days are all but guaranteed in the Andalucia region in summer. Daytime highs don’t tend to stray below the 30s in July and August, and they can reach into the 40s from time to time. Rainfall is pretty uncommon, as well. Spring and autumn are nice times to come here – the weather is a bit cooler, and the main attractions aren’t as busy. Average temperatures range from about 15 to 20 degrees, and there’s a bit more of a breeze in the air.

Passports & Visas

British citizens don’t need a visa to enter Spain but must have a valid passport. You can check your passport’s valid for Spain using our handy tool. For the most up-to-date passport and visa info, visit www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice/spain/entry-requirements.

Don't forget to arrange your travel money and insurance before you go.

Health & Safety

You should take out comprehensive travel and medical insurance to cover you while you’re away. If you’re travelling to the EU and you apply for a card now, you'll get a new UK Global Health Insurance Card (GHIC) instead of an EHIC. This entitles you to emergency medical treatment on the same terms as Spanish nationals. It won’t, however, cover you for medical repatriation, ongoing medical treatment or non-urgent treatment. Visit www.nhs.uk/ehic for full details on what it covers. You do not need to apply for a GHIC if you already have an EHIC. Your EHIC remains valid in the EU until it expires. An EHIC or GHIC is free of charge. For the latest health and safety information, visit www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice/spain/health
