Whilst Spain is renowned for its excellent sunny weather, this does not apply to the whole of the country. It does get cold in winter. On the Atlantic coast (in the north) there is significant rainfall and is much cooler year-round, similar to the UK.
It does however have spectacular scenery with rugged coastline and impressive estuaries called rķas, particularly in Galicia. Inland Spain has more extremes of weather in that it normally freezes in winter and bakes in the summer. It gets particularly hot in the south. Granada and Sevilla can be well in excess of 35C.
The long Mediterranean coast is in general a bit wetter but milder year-round. The well-known Costa Brava, Costa Blanca and Costa del Sol coasts enjoy the warm Mediterranean water (over 20C in summer) and have miles of nice beaches that make these areas the most appealing to visitors.
The Balearic Islands of Mallorca, Ibiza and Menorca tend to be slightly wetter and winder than the mainland Mediterranean coast but with warmer waters (usually 25C in August).
