Flamenco

Where else but in Spain can you see a real flamenco show? This undoubtedly passionate dance is known to many for its authenticity and interesting visuals: during the performance, you can not only watch the dance but also enjoy the music, singing and rhythm. In addition, many hotels in Spain offer their own flamenco lessons, so you can not only watch but also take part in it in person.

La Tomatina Festival

This is a tomato battle that takes place in the Valencian town of Buñol every August. The festival is held in honour of the city's patron saint, St. Louis Bertrand, and Our Lady of Protection. In general, the event lasts for 1 hour, after which the streets are washed with fire trucks.

International zipline

You can cross the Spanish border and get to Portugal in just a few seconds only here. Lmite Zero is the only cross-border zipline in the world that offers tourists to cross the Guadiana River to reach Portugal in 720 metres. Both countries are members of the Schengen Agreement, so you don't even need a passport to get there.

Underwater Museum

The Atlantic Museum is the only museum in Europe that offers visitors the opportunity to explore the underwater world and see more than 300 different life-size human figures with their own eyes. You can join a diving tour and see an artificial reef, octopuses, barracudas, stingrays, and even a rare angel shark.
