Spain Weather in February

What’s the weather like in Spain in February?

With its huge coastline and vast inland areas, Spain has cooler weather on its northern coast in comparison with the Mediterranean south. In February, Spain is still on the cold side, but with temperatures gradually warming up as the month goes on, there’s a chance of warm weather, especially on the southern coast. With cool evenings and some light rain showers, make sure you pack for all eventualities with plenty of layers and a waterproof coat. Even when it’s wet, most of the rain falls across just a handful of days, so you can still expect prolonged dry spells even in winter.
