Spain and Portugal share the Iberian Peninsula, a vaguely square-shaped realm at the far south-western edge of Europe. Spain occupies some 80% of this peninsula and is separated from France by the formidable Pyrenees mountains. More than half of the country is made up of vast, elevated tablelands - the mesetas - and five major mountain ranges stretch across the country. Landscapes range from the deserts of Almer?to the green wetlands of Galicia; from the sunbaked plains of La Mancha to the rugged mountains of the Picos de Europa; and from the wilds of Extremadura to the highly developed
Most tourists come to Spain's coastal strip during July and August, when the sun is at its strongest. In the north, and on the Balearic Islands, summer temperatures of around 30 degrees Celsius are standard. In winter, the rains never seem to stop in the north, except in the backlands of Galicia and the Pyrenees, where they turn into snow. Generally the north is best during summer, Andaluc?is best in spring, the centre is best in autumn and the south in winter.
