TODAY is spring break and anywhere in Spain is definitely a paradise. On the more than 300 kilometers of Mediterranean coastline in the Spanish Iberian Peninsula, you will find two kinds of beaches – the conventional and the nudist ones. In both these beaches, you can be assured of quality of service because all beaches here in Spain are inspected quarterly by the European Union and being given the reputed blue flag accreditation. In the nudist beaches, it is suggested to do the skinny dipping at night so that you can experience the glowing planktons illuminating your body underwater.

In the Mediterranean parts of Spain, you will also eat the healthiest food on the planet – the Mediterranean diet which consists of nothing but yummy and nutritious seafood plucked directly from the Mediterranean. In places here such as Costa Blanca, Costa del Sol and Valencia City, you will find aquariums in five-star restaurants where you get to tell the waiter to pluck out a particular lobster before they’ll cook it to what is stipulated in the menu that you have chosen. In short, folks here hate to eat their fish frozen. They want it delivered right from the fisherman’s boat to the kitchen doorstep of these restaurants.

Elsewhere like in the Pyrenees, now in spring is the best time to enjoy teaching your kid how to ski because it’s not too dangerous because there are definitely no avalanches during spring. There is no wind because every flower is blooming. In fact, if you are skiing in the Pyrenees at this time of the year, you may find some floras budding up during this period. If their flowers are fuchsia pink, it will definitely blend in with the white background of the snow.

In drier areas of the country such as Garabandal, you will find yourself immersed with a flock of Roman Catholic pilgrims who go the chapel where the Virgin Mary reportedly made an apparition at the second half of the last century. Although the apparition has never been officially authenticated by the Church, countless persons have testified that they have been healed after going there. Most of the pilgrims to Garabandal who come here during spring break are not that affluent so it’s better to contact your favorite travel agent so you’ll know where to get humongous discounts in coming up here.
