Andalucia
find a flight
(Spain)


Andalucia is a delicious feast for the eyes and a roaring banquet for the mind.

With strong Islamic roots and a history of unrelenting poverty, Andalucía is perhaps the least European part of western Europe; but the region's heritage is Spanish as well as Muslim. It gave us Velázquez, Picasso and Lorca, and is also a hotbed of flamenco, fiesta and bullfighting.

At a Glance
Getting Around:

Andalucía has no internal flights. All airports in the region have buses going to major town centres, except for Gibraltar where you have to cross the border into Spain to La Linea's Bus Station. Local and national buses service the towns and villages. Regional or cercanía trains run between the main cities, suburbs and smaller towns. Long-distance trains link Andalucía with the other Spanish regions and many major cities.
Weather:

While Andalucía's coastal climate is temperate, inland the winters are fierce and summers scorching. In July and August thermometers can hit a sweltering 36°C (97°F) in Seville and Córdoba. From December to February, top temperatures hover around 16°C (60°F) on the coast and 13°C (55°F) in Granada, where nights are close to freezing. Powerful winds come off the Atlantic, and the east of the region is drier than the west. The strongest winds pummel Tarifa.
