While Spain's reputation for endless sunshine precedes it, don't let it fool you into leaving your warm clothes behind. Northern Spain, with its cooler climates, especially warrants a jacket or two. "Hasta el 40 de mayo, no te quites el sayo," as the locals say—keep that coat on until June 10th. So, alongside your swimsuits and sandals, make sure your luggage has space for some warmer wear. Being prepared means you can enjoy every aspect of Spain, from its sunny beaches to its misty mountains, in comfort.
