Helpful tips for your visit to Spain

When you book a motorhome for hire in Spain, you will be curious to know when you should visit. You may think that because everyone else goes in summer, the best time to go to Spain for fun and relaxation in the sun is during summer. However, it's very crowded during June, July, and August. If you still want stunning warm weather with fewer crowds, consider travelling there during March, April, or May.

  • Beach holiday

    Ideally, if you want to enjoy a pleasant visit to the beach when the sun is shining and there are fewer crowds, the best time to book a camper van for hire in Spain is during the summer.

  • Winter holiday

    Winter runs from around the 21st of December to the 21st of March and is a great time to hire a campervan in Spain. You still get a winter experience, but it's warmer and has less rain in other parts of Europe. By that time of year, it's less crowded, giving you a better chance to have a quiet and peaceful time when you book a motorhome rental in Spain.

  • Outdoor activities

    If you are interested in doing a lot of sightseeing, exploring the countryside and coast, hiking, or even cycling, we recommend booking a campervan in Spain in late spring, early summer, or autumn. The weather is still lovely and t-shirt-friendly, and places are open and accessible without many tourists.

Best campervan routes around Spain

N-340 – The Spanish Route-66
By far, the longest road in Spain is the N-340. It's 1,248km long and runs from Cadiz to the famous Barcelona. Interestingly, locals refer to it as Spain’s Route 66. Along the way, you navigate through many small towns down the coast, from Puerto Real close to San Fernando to Autoviaends near Vejer de La Frontera and onto Algeciras, then Almeria, Estepona, Fuengirola, Marbella, Benalmadena, Torremolinos, and finishing in Malaga. It's a great way to experience and understand the country's fascinating heritage, history and culture.

From Santander to Glijon via the N-634, N-621, N-625, N-634, and N-632
When you book a motorhome for hire in Spain, another exciting road is navigating from Santander through to Glijon. This is perfect if you want to experience the north of Spaun without settling on a specific town, village, or rural area. We recommend this route as it's relatively easy, even if it provides a lot of fun. Why not sopt at San Vicente de la Barquera or Llanes. From Spanish and French Basque Country, Bilbao to Pamplona, Biarritz, San Sebastian to Bilbao
Another great route takes you through 480km of fantastic Spanish and French Basque Country, over the Pyrenees, and along the wild and wonderful Atlantic coast.
