Spain is one of the most geographically diverse countries in Europe. More than 2,000 kilometres separate the Atlantic landscapes of the north from the volcanic terrain of the Canary Islands. When thinking of the southernmost town in Spain, many point to Tarifa.

The province of Almería is a land of contrasts, where pristine beaches, deserts such as Tabernas, and white villages steeped in history coexist.

The province of Málaga is known for its coastline and vibrant white villages, but it also has a less visible side: that of abandoned villages that, for various reasons, were left without inhabitants.

Madrid is preparing to welcome Pope Leo XIV for a visit expected to be one of the largest events in the capital in recent years.

Los Realejos, in northern Tenerife, is a municipality that combines Canarian tradition, natural beauty and proximity to the sea in a setting that is more residential than tourist‑oriented.

Fuerteventura is an island that surprises with its landscapes. Beyond its beaches and reputation as a windswept paradise, it reveals a mosaic of mountains, volcanoes, valleys, ravines and wild coastlines.

Cultural tourism often brings to mind grand cathedrals and monumental temples – yet Spain is also home to the smallest church in the world. Hidden inside Colomares Castle in Benalmádena (Málaga), the Church of Saint Elizabeth of Hungary measures just 1.96 square metres. Despite its tiny size, the chapel holds a unique place in architectural history and is recognised by the Guinness World Records, combining exceptional heritage value with a remarkable curiosity.

Yaiza is one of Lanzarote’s most peaceful and distinctive municipalities – known for its whitewashed villages, the lively atmosphere in areas such as Playa Blanca and its close connection to the sea.

Cantabria is renowned for its cliffs, wild beaches, green valleys and small towns. But in the far south – away from the coastal bustle – lies the region’s largest municipality, a territory spanning almost 300 km² that conceals some of Cantabria’s most spectacular and lesser‑known landscapes.

Spain is a paradise for lovers of the sea and nature – and as temperatures rise, the variety of beaches along its coastline becomes even more enticing.
