A comparison of 212 cities in Spain by VanSky score — how comfortable it is to travel in each today. We factor in temperature, wind, sun and conditions by the sea. Sort by any metric and pick your next stop. A comparison of 19 regions of Spain by VanSky score — where it's most comfortable to travel right now. We factor in temperature, wind, sun and conditions by the sea.

The country score (0–100) is computed from all of its cities, not a single point. Cities are grouped into regions, and a region's score is the median of its cities so dense clusters don't outweigh sparse ones. Final score = 0.65 × “best areas” (80th percentile of regions) + 0.35 × “typical conditions” (median of regions), so one warm city can't push the whole country to 100. Each city's score blends warmth (feels-like), sun, rain and wind, adjusted for night temperature and, on the coast, the sea. Data: Open-Meteo, refreshed several times a day.

The scale above shows what share of the country's cities falls into each comfort band. “Best spot” is the most comfortable region or city this week; “typical conditions” is the median score across regions.

VanSky Index

A weather comfort index for travel: a 0–100 score. Recalculated daily from live weather data — temperature, rainfall, wind and sun.

80–100 Ideal
60–79 Comfortable
40–59 Acceptable
20–39 Challenging
0–19 Extreme

How it's calculated:

  • Thermal comfort 35% — temperature + humidity
  • Sunshine 25% — panel charge, mood; in heat the sun is no longer a bonus
  • Precipitation 25% — rain → muddy ground
  • Wind 15% — awning, driving, noise
  • Extremes override all: frost, heat, storm, downpour
  • Heat counts by feels-like temperature: at 32°+ the score can’t reach “Comfortable”, muggy nights lower it further
  • A dangerous day drags the week down: a storm or downpour in the forecast keeps the week from being “Comfortable”
  • Bonus: warm sea, high panel output

Customer accuses Roadsurfer of charging for pre-existing damage

A customer who rented a motorhome from Roadsurfer from June 16 to 27, 2026, claims the company is trying to charge for damage that existed before the rental. During pickup in Viladecans, the awning was found to deploy unevenly and had a broken support leg held together with worn duct tape. Employee Leonardo noted this on his tablet, but the company's first damage assessment attributed the awning damage to the customer. The customer provided timestamped photos, yet Roadsurfer demands payment for the awning and a broken rear light (€715 for the part and €406 for labor), threatening legal action. The company lacks a customer service phone number, does not return deposits, and does not cover awning damage under any of its three insurance plans.

Camping in Spain: What travelers need to know about wildfires and crime

Germany's Foreign Office has updated travel advice for Spain, highlighting risks for motorhome and caravan users. Key threats include theft on highways (especially the A7) and wildfires that recently killed 12 people in Andalusia. Drivers are advised not to stop on the hard shoulder if signaled falsely about a breakdown, and to evacuate immediately when ordered. Since 2026, Spanish-registered vehicles must carry a V-16 emergency light, but foreign vehicles may still use a warning triangle.

Buying a motorhome for the first time: key points to avoid mistakes

Buying a motorhome for the first time requires evaluating more than just price and interior layout. Weight, homologation, history, fuel consumption, insurance, actual use, and documentation must be checked, as a poor choice can lead to ongoing costs. The key is deciding how it will be used: weekend trips, long journeys, family routes, or autonomous overnight stays. This determines size, bed type, tank capacity, auxiliary battery, and driving license requirements.

Dutch family sells home to move to Spain, ends up living in a motorhome

The Stoffels family from Vlaardingen (Netherlands) sold their apartment and planned to relocate to Valencia to open a barbecue restaurant, but instead began traveling across Europe in a motorhome. Since October, they have been moving between coastal areas and historical sites, with their children receiving remote education. The family acknowledges this lifestyle is temporary: when the proceeds from the house sale run out, they plan to move to Sardinia and open a campsite there.
