Spain holidays and flights toSpain

In majestic Madrid, the Prado gallery houses haunting El Greco paintings, and 20th-century art fills Frank Gehry’s Guggenheim in Bilbao. It’s easy to pack your Barcelona visit with Gaudi’s eccentric mosaics, while in vibrant Seville the royal palace Alcazar drips with Moorish influence. Snorkel in the south coast’s warm Mediterranean waters. Or discover the Canary Islands of Fuerteventura and Tenerife, with their sun-drenched sandy beaches and striking volcanic landscapes.

The top things to do in Tenerife

It’s within touching distance of the African continent, but Tenerife has its own fabulous, self-contained spirit. It’s where Lord Nelson lost his arm, it’s where you’ll find surprising history, tawny sands and a star-studded night sky.

Family holidays in Spain

It's a short walk from Barcelona’s centre to the urban beaches for seaside fun or a thrilling cable-car ride to Montserrat’s hilltop monastery. Paddle at the golden sands of Costa Brava’s resorts, and spot dolphins from glass-bottomed catamarans off Malaga’s coast. Or just down the coast from Barcelona, head to the fantastic Port Aventura where you’ll find rollercoasters, waterslides and fun for all the family. And during the winter, sporty families take to the ski slopes in the Sierra Nevada Mountains.

Romantic getaways in Spain

In Malaga, take a romantic walk to the craggy ramparts of Gibralfaro Castle for views of the sandy coastline. Wake up in your romantic restored townhouse hotel, to fall in love with hot, sensual Seville. Andalusian neighbour, Granada's Moorish Alhambra, is dotted with carved ceramics and Koranic inscriptions. For solace, it’s easy to lose yourselves exploring

Golf holidays in Spain

Spain’s environments are wonderfully diverse, from mountainous regions to sunbaked deserts. Head to Alicante to play the beautiful Costa Blanca resorts, where year-round sun is almost guaranteed. The Costa del Sol, around Malaga, is great for stunning views of Africa, with a dry climate ideal for honing your skills. And of course, Tenerife has some spectacular courses surrounded by volcanic mountains and beautiful beaches.

Villa holidays in Spain

Experience all that Spain has to offer on a holiday by our specialist villa provider, James Villas. Soak up the Spanish sun while reclining by your private pool. Or unwind on the stunning beaches of the Costa del Sol. Choose from handpicked Canary Island villas in the vibrant beach resorts of Fuerteventura and Lanzarote. Or discover the beautiful Balearics, where incredible scenery and family-friendly coastal spots await in destinations like Menorca and Ibiza.

Beach holidays in the Canary Islands

Seven beautiful volcanic islands just off the coast of North Africa make up the Canary Islands, four of which you can fly to with British Airways. Learn about Gran Canaria’s brilliant hiking opportunities, head to Lanzarote for underwater safaris, make the most of the spectacular scenery in Tenerife, or try some action-packed water sports in Fuerteventura. The Canary Islands are ideally placed to have great weather all year round – sunny and warm throughout the seasons.

Skiing in Spain

Spain is home to some 1000 kilometres of pistes, and when you add to this mild, sunny weather and small family-friendly resorts you have a perfect ski holiday.

Most of the bigger resorts are in the Pyrenees, with many peaks above 3000 metres creating a snow-sure region for ski fans.

Baqueira-Beret

Sometimes considered the best resort in the world, Baqueira-Beret offers superb skiing, world-class lifts and some serious après ski. Unlike in France and Austria, you’ll find very few people on the first lifts, relatively quiet pistes and a late-night restaurant scene. Best suited for intermediate and skilled skiers, you’ll find some difficult long reds and even some narrow, steep blacks at Cap de Baqueira. The resort itself is purpose-built in the 60s, and as such is not as picturesque as certain other resorts, but it more than makes up for this with its superb skiing and laid-back atmosphere off the mountain.
