Know Before You Go
- A valid passport and Schengen visa are required, and it is advisable to carry both digital and physical copies of travel documents at all times.
- Always keep your passport or a copy with you, as hotels and authorities may ask for ID proof during check-ins or travel checks.
- Spanish, Catalan, and other regional languages are spoken, but English is understood in tourist areas; learning a few greetings in Spanish is appreciated.
- Power sockets are of type C and F with 230V supply, so carrying a universal adapter is necessary for charging devices.
- The climate varies across regions—Mediterranean along the coast, continental inland, and alpine in the mountains—so packing layers is recommended.
- Spain is famous for festivals and nightlife; while the environment is safe, keeping an eye on belongings in crowded areas is always wise.
- Tipping is not mandatory but leaving small change or rounding up the bill is a polite gesture at restaurants and cafés.
- Most shops, especially in smaller towns, may close in the afternoon for siesta hours, reopening in the evening, so plan shopping accordingly.
- Travel insurance covering health and activities like skiing or adventure tours is strongly recommended for peace of mind.
- Euros are the official currency, and credit/debit cards are widely accepted, though it is useful to keep small cash for local shops, markets, or countryside visits.
- Credit and debit cards with international access work well, but inform your bank before travel to avoid transaction blocks.
- Always greet politely with a “Hola” and “Gracias,” as basic courtesy goes a long way in daily interactions with locals.
