Head inland to experience Spain, holidaymakers told

Holidaymakers in Spain and Portugal should head inland if they want to experience the true nature of the countries, it has been claimed. Rather than taking trips to the coast, Lonely Planet has recommended that visitors travel only around ten miles from the Costas to take in a “totally different atmosphere where things are still very traditional and very Spanish”. The news may be of interest to those looking to buy property in Spain, with inland locations likely to rise in popularity. “If you are looking for a distinctive Spanish or Portuguese experience then you should try and do a little bit of exploring inland rather than just sticking to beaches,” Tom Hall, travel editor at Lonely Planet, said. “Exploring inland, for example if you’re on the Costa in Spain, if you can go ten miles inland, you will often find a totally different place, a totally different atmosphere, still very traditional and very Spanish.”
