Winter 2023/21 in Spain
Whilst Spain is associated more with summer than winter, there is still plenty to do in the cooler months. Hire a 4x4 and head to the ski slopes of the Sierra Nevada near Granada where you will find several popular resorts. Looking for some winter sun? You could also visit the Canary Islands which offer all-year round heat and summer vibes.

Felix from Sixt at Madrid Airport was very friendly, courteous, and respectful to us! He was extremely knowledgeable with all of the rules and regulations for us first time car renters, especially in a foreign country, and made the entire experience so smooth for us even in a time crunch. May we be blessed to have him help us again the next time we need a rental car in Spain!
