The summer in Spain is the time when the country's resorts come alive, filling with tourists from all over the world, eager to fully enjoy beach vacation. However, each summer month has its own peculiarities that should be considered when planning your vacation. 

In June, the high season starts, with daytime temperatures ranging from +25°C to +30°C, while the Mediterranean Sea warms up to +22°C - +24°C, creating comfortable conditions for swimming. Accommodation prices start to rise, but it's still possible to find relatively favorable offers.

July and August are the hottest and busiest months. Air temperatures reach levels from +30°C to +35°C, while the water temperature varies between +25°C to +27°C. It's the peak of the season, and the prices for accommodation and flights become the highest, with beaches and hotels packed with vacationers.

With the arrival of September, the off-season begins: the temperature slightly decreases, ranging from +25°C to +30°C, but the water remains warm, +24°C - +26°C, allowing continued enjoyment of the sea. Prices begin to drop, enabling advance booking of holidays at affordable prices.
