Spain: an Overview Southern Spain is popular with sun worshippers, but temperatures in the summer can be excessive for someone used to a northern climate. Northern Spain Although there are a huge variety of landscapes in the north, this area is probably the least popular for visitors settling in Spain, as access to most of the coastline is limited from the main airport in Bilbao. If you have the time to explore this coastline you can trek the ancient pilgrim trails of Santiago di Compostella in the west, climb the Picos de Europa Mountains and enjoy the cosmopolitan cities of Sandtander, Bilbao and San Sebastian. The Basque people retain their strong regional identity, with their language and customs, including the infamous annual fiesta at Pamplona where the bulls run through the streets each morning. Those with a taste for wine will enjoy the Rioja and Navarra regions and even some of the locally produced ciders. The countryside tends to be greener than that the rest of Spain as it is susceptible to Atlantic weather patterns with its fair share ofrain.
