National Holidays
Official national holidays can disrupt your travel plans. On the days we've listed, and during scores of local festivals you'll find everything except the odd bar closed. In addition, everyone in Spain seems to go on holiday in August : Barcelona is semi-deserted, and many of the shops and restaurants, even museums, close. In contrast it can prove nearly impossible to find a free bed in the more popular coastal and mountain resorts at these times; similarly, seats on planes, trains and buses should be booked well in advance.
