Best time to visit Spain from Ireland

Spain is a year-round destination for Irish travellers. Summer (June to August) is packed and scorching on the Costas. Spring and autumn are ideal for cities like Seville and Granada where summer heat can be brutal. The Canary Islands offer warm sunshine even in January, which is very appealing in the depths of an Irish winter.
