Spain Less Traveled’s guide to the top 10 places to visit in Spain in 2026

In 2026 Spain will remain a popular travel destination. Sagrada Familia in Barcelona is scheduled to be completed, and a good portion of the country will have a full solar eclipse in August. Plus the Tour de France starts in Spain next year. The most sought after cities and regions are already booking up. Basically, 2026 in Spain is going to be hot. And that is not only the summer weather.

This list includes regions, cities, small towns, and natural areas… and more! There are names you may be familiar with, others perhaps not so much. Some of these places are accessible by public transport. But for many of them you will need your own transportation. Read our guide: getting around Spain for transport tips. And some may inspire you to center your whole trip around them. But you may want to sprinkle some of these places into your Spain travel itinerary to spice it up a little.

No matter which of these you find alluring, it is our hope that you will find the perfect part of Spain to start your 2026 Spain trip planning. (And we’d love to help with that, be sure to check out the professional Spain travel planning services we offer.)
