When the summer sun floods the Spanish landscape and the Mediterranean breeze blows through, it’s the perfect time to embark on a journey through some of Spain’s most captivating cities. The historic charm of Cadiz or the bustling streets of Barcelona; the wonderful Malaga that has it all, and the incalculable cultural richness of Madrid, Spain offers a range of experiences that promise an unforgettable summer adventure. But most of these must-see cities in Spain are also perfect to visit at any time of the year. From Coeo we give you our top four. We hope you like them!
Cádiz
We’ll start our must-see cities in Spain with the so-called “tacita de plata” (the little silver cup). Nestled along the southwestern coast, Cadiz is a city that enchants with its timeless beauty. With a history dating back more than 3,000 years, Cádiz boasts a rich tapestry of architecture and culture.
Stroll through the narrow streets of the old town, explore its iconic Cathedral and sunbathe on Victoria beach. In addition, its proximity to the Atlantic Ocean makes it a paradise for seafood lovers, who can savour the freshest sea products. In short, Cádiz’s blend of history and coastal charm guarantees an enjoyable summer getaway.
Barcelona
Our second must-see city in Spain is Barcelona, the jewel of Catalonia. This place invites you to enjoy its artistic treasures and cosmopolitan charm. Antoni Gaudí’s architectural wonders, such as the fascinating Sagrada Familia and Park Güell, add even more charm to the cityscape. One of the most pleasant walks is along La Rambla, a bustling boulevard lined with street performers and local vendors. But the vibrant atmosphere of the Gothic Quarter also provides a fantastic setting for a summer evening stroll.
Finally, its golden beaches and world-class cuisine make Barcelona an ideal summer destination that perfectly blends history, culture and relaxation.
Málaga
At Coeo, we are privileged to live in one of the top must-see cities in Spain, for us, the most charming and vibrant place where the sun meets the Mediterranean Sea (around 330 sunny days a year) to make the city even more beautiful.
Malaga, the coastal jewel of the Costa del Sol, captivates with its golden beaches and blue waters. But also for its wide range of leisure and activities, and what is more, for its amazing city centre full of history, art and culture. Thus, beyond its beach charm, the city has a rich heritage, as it is the birthplace of the famous artist Pablo Picasso. In both summer and winter, Malaga is a must-see city in Spain, where we suggest exploring the Picasso Museum, strolling around the Alcazaba (a Moorish fortress offering panoramic views of the city and the sea) and indulging in the city’s delicious gastronomy. In addition, Malaga’s lively nightlife adds to its irresistible charm.
At Coeo we know very well the captivating beauty of this wonderful city. That is why all our accommodations are located in the heart of the city centre. Both our aparthotels and our original pod hostel offer the best services for you to enjoy an unforgettable stay in this must-see city in Spain. Furthermore, from our Coeo local community, we do our best to offer you the best activities, so that you can discover the city as you would never have imagined.
By the way, did you know that Malaga is one of the preferred places of digital nomads for remote working in the world? 😉
Madrid
Yes, we are talking about must-see cities in Spain in summer, and it is true that Madrid is far from the coast. However, this season is one of the best to enjoy the capital quietly and without the usual crowds and traffic inconveniences.
Madrid beats with a contagious energy. From its grand boulevards to its world-class museums, the city offers a cultural fiesta that is hard to match. The Prado Museum showcases an impressive collection of European art, while the Retiro Park offers an interior oasis for strolling and picnics. Enjoy the Spanish tradition of tapas in the historic neighbourhoods of La Latina and Malasaña, and take in the grandeur of the Royal Palace. Madrid’s dynamic spirit and rich heritage create the perfect setting for an enriching getaway.
