Valencia is the 3rd largest city in Spain, which is located on the southeast coast of the country, known as the Costa del Hazard. This location results in hot, dry summers and cool, mild winters. March is one of the best times to visit Valencia as the city is not as hot as the summer months, which has a significant impact on sightseeing. The average daytime temperature in Valencia in March is 13°C, and on warm days can reach an average high of 18°C. Light clothing is usually worn this month, especially at the end of March. However, throughout the month temperatures can drop to 7°C, especially in the evening, so prepare for a warmer jacket or opt for a coat. While you are in Valencia, there are many museums and art galleries you can visit. One of the most popular is IVAM or the Institute of Contemporary Art. Here visitors can see exhibitions of many famous artists, including the Catalan sculptor Julio Gonzalez. Valencia is also famous for its incredible nightlife. Tapas restaurants, bars and clubs line the streets, creating an atmosphere for a busy and exciting evening.
I recently returned from an amazing holiday in Malaga, Spain in March. This month was simply ideal for a holiday - not too hot, like in summer, and the weather was varied, which made the holiday even more interesting. It was cool but sunny in the morning, warm and sunny in the afternoon and a little cooler in the evening. I liked this variety because it allowed me to enjoy both the beach and the city. This type of weather is ideal for active recreation - both on the beach and in the city, as well as for visiting attractions and excursions. I've been there in the past in June and July and although it was lovely, it was very hot and humid. If I had to choose a month for my next vacation, I would choose March again. Of course, it depends on what you want from your holiday, but for me it was the perfect balance between activity and relaxation.
I was in Alicante in February 2023 and was very pleased. The weather was ideal for a winter holiday: warm, sunny and little rain. I enjoyed exploring the city and its surroundings, which have many interesting places. Alicante is a great option for those who want to enjoy the winter sun, culture and gastronomy of Spain. I recommend visiting this city in February when it is not so crowded with tourists.
Alicante was the first Spanish city in which I vacationed for a long time. The vacation was spontaneous, so the vacation took place in March, which is not typical for Alicante. Despite this, the weather was excellent. On average about 20 degrees. It was possible to walk around in a T-shirt without any problems; in the evening, I threw on a jacket wide open. It rained only once during the entire vacation. I liked the city, I already want to go again, also in March.
At the beginning of February, my friend and I flew to Barcelona. I took demi-season clothes and an umbrella in addition, it came in handy a couple of times. Upon arrival, the weather was sunny, the temperature was about 14 degrees, quite comfortable for walking around the city, you could feel a fresh breeze. Then it got a little colder to 10 degrees, it was cloudy and rainy, but not for long. In the last days of the trip, the sunny weather returned again. We had many interesting outdoor excursions and successful shopping.
My husband and I went to Malaga in the second half of June. The weather was warm and sunny, with an average temperature of about 25°. A couple of days were cloudy and there was some rain. Before leaving, the temperature rose to 28°. The water in the sea was cool, I like it warmer, and my husband swam constantly. He said that at first it’s great invigorating and then you don’t want to go out. In general, we had a great time, the tan lay evenly and beautifully, the climate was simply wonderful.
Coming from rainy and cool Minsk, I would never have thought that I would plunge into real summer. I was simply amazed that at that time in Valencia the thermometer rose to +30 degrees. There are a lot of tourists in the city, people wear shorts and T-shirts, there is laughter, joy and smiles everywhere. It felt like I was on another planet)) Well, that’s not all, the water temperature in the Mediterranean Sea was consistently above 20 degrees, which I was incredibly happy about. An indelible impression was made by a boat trip with dinner at sunset, which gave me simply incredible emotions, like the whole vacation in general.
Andalusia is simply incredible. If you have never been to this region before, then I advise you to definitely come here, and not for 1-2 days, but for at least 5-6. In this case, you will have the opportunity not only to enjoy the beauty of this place, but to truly fall in love with it. We went to Malaga on the eve of the Christmas and New Year holidays and I can say without exaggeration that we managed to visit a real fairy tale. The weather did not disappoint, but I note that it is not suitable for a beach holiday. During the day it was around 12-15 degrees, so it was not in vain that we took light jackets and tracksuits. But in the evening the wind rose and it became quite cool. Such conditions are ideal for all kinds of excursions, hiking, and exploring local cuisine (in the fresh air). But as always, we didn’t have enough time... So we will definitely come back again!
