Spain is a beautiful country with so many options and possibilities for your vacation. You will certainly enjoy its wonderful scenery, interesting towns, find many splendid coves and beaches, both crowded and the most remote ones to enjoy your tranquil vacation.
Costa Brava, Costa Blanca and the Balearic Islands are pretty popular in the peak season, however, may would also be an excellent period for visit, for it's not too crowded, yet is wonderful.
As to the regulations, in case you decide to choose a bareboat charter, then you'll need the International Certificate of Competence or RYA Yacht Master Certification. In case you decide to hire a skipper and a hostess who takes care of preparing meals, we suggest you go out for dinner, for it is a part of Spanish tradition. Dinner in Spain usually starts a bit later, around 9 pm to midnight. Visit some of the most interesting tapas bars, restaurants and night clubs. Pay a visit to a tapas bar for a glass of vine perhaps, or for a delicious and unusual appetizer ( a small plate of food ).
Take the opportunity of exploring this wonderful country and make your vacation unforgettable.
