2019 is already well underway and if you haven’t booked your summer holiday already then you may want to do it soon before it’s booked up. Spain is a popular destination for holiday makers from the UK. The short flight time, similar time zones and family friendly atmosphere is often a big attraction for many brits. Spain is a very diverse country and has a number of locations that are perfect for a variety of holidays. You can chose to stay in mainland Spain or one of the Balearic Islands.

Although most of the beaches are amazing, there is far more to the country than just sand and sea. If you are happy to try a few new dishes, you won’t be disappointed with the wide selection of food on offer and most restaurants also offer food that is similar to what you may eat at home.

If you fancy visiting somewhere with a bit of background then you may want to go to Bilbao. Although the name means industrial port, do not be put off as this city has a lot to offer. You must visit the museum called the Guggenheim, which is full of fascinating artefacts and artworks and then take a trip in to the old part of the city for a drink or two.
