Ideal Destinations to Enjoy Easter

Deciding where to go on vacation can sometimes be a bit complicated, but it can be even more so when the holidays in question are for Easter. Why? Because this holiday changes dates every year, and it's not the same to choose a destination for a month like March as it is to plan a trip at the end of April.

The weather can vary considerably depending on the date, but also depending on the destination we have in mind. That's why, to help you choose more comfortably where to go for Easter, we've decided to create a list of suggestions to inspire you. Beaches, mountains, rural environments, cities... The final decision is yours.

Paradise Beaches

The beach is one of the top destinations when deciding where to go for Easter. We suggest traveling to the Canary Islands to enjoy extensive sandy beaches where you can take a break from the routine.

Fuerteventura is one of the islands where you'll find exceptional beaches with golden, fine sand to sink your toes into while you gaze at the crystal-clear waters. From there, you can take a short excursion to enjoy the wild nature of Lobos islet or explore the Natural Park of the Corralejo Dunes.

Extensive beaches, but this time with black sand, are offered by the south of Tenerife. In the Los Cristianos and Las Américas area, you can find an ambiance 24 hours a day and enjoy both relaxation on the beach and the best nightlife. You can also take excursions to see whales and dolphins offshore. So, wherever you go, don't forget your sandals.

Historic Cities

If you're looking for a bit of history or want to see how Easter is celebrated in other cities in Spain, Murcia is undoubtedly a great destination. Tradition is deeply rooted in this city, which has its own museum of Easter processional statues and some of the oldest processions in the country. But we won't deny it, it also has an incredible atmosphere at this time of year and some tapas you can't miss between processions.

But to ask where to go for Easter in Spain and not mention Andalusia would be crazy. Setting aside the traditional Seville or Granada, Malaga also offers you a lot of history and tradition related to Easter and its processions. The best part? You'll be on the Costa del Sol, so with a bit of luck, you can even combine a cultural plan with a beach one.

Mountain Destinations

If you want to get away from the hustle and bustle, but you don't like the beach, you can always opt for mountain plans and take advantage of enjoying some fresher air. Put on your most comfortable boots because you'll need them in a place like the Ordesa and Monte Perdido National Park in the Aragonese Pyrenees. One of the most spectacular landscapes in the entire peninsula where you can take a few days off.

Another great option is to visit the Laguna Negra Natural Park and the Glacial Circuses of Urbión, in Soria. This spectacular landscape will make you forget everything as you explore its pine forests and walk along its shore. Besides, depending on the weather when you visit, the landscape will change from being a luminous tapestry to becoming a mysterious place invaded by fog.

Rural Tourism

There's nothing like the quiet life of the village, at least during the holidays. That's why Potes is the first rural destination we propose for where to go for Easter. It's included among the most beautiful villages in Spain, surrounded by a dream landscape and crossed by the Deva and Quiviesa rivers. A perfect place to enjoy a well-deserved rest. Remember to bring warm clothes: a comfortable sweatshirt, a hat, and even a jacket for the rain because in those latitudes, the weather can change from one day to the next.

Without leaving the north of the peninsula, but directing our steps to the west, you can enjoy a good rural plan in the Galician Ribeira Sacra. There, you'll have the option to do both hiking routes through the Sil and Mao canyons and take a catamaran ride while you see the vineyard terraces. A destination you can't visit without a good jacket.

Our country offers the most varied destinations so you can enjoy an Easter according to your interests. There are plans for families, couples, and even for traveling alone. Just make sure to equip yourself well for your destination before you leave.
