Climate & Clothing
Northern Spain enjoys bright but cool springs with daytime temperatures around 20°C. It will usually be dry, but be prepared for the odd shower! Clothing is mostly smart/casual however a jacket would be appropriate for gentlemen at some of the restaurants – tie optional - definately no shorts or open shoes.
