Sustainable tourism in Spain

With 84 million foreign travellers visiting Spain in 2019, Spain is easily one of the world's top three tourist destinations. Between its vibrant cities, pleasant sun-drenched beaches and rich culture, it's easy to see why.

But travellers often concentrate in the same places, especially in Catalonia and on the Andalusian coast. This craze is not without consequences: the country is trying to move away from the mass beach tourism that many regions suffer from.

To this end, Catalonia is committed to sustainable tourism and has even received the Tourist Destination Certification. With preserved natural areas such as the Ebro Delta Natural Park or the Girona region, which is full of greenways for bicycles, Catalonia is boosting rural tourism and relieving the pressure on its beaches.

Other regions are also beginning to ride the wave of responsible tourism in Spain. The craze for the Pilgrim's Way to Santiago de Compostela is enabling the country to gradually revive hiking and cycling. Eco-responsible activities such as kayaking, horse riding and walking are developing to allow travellers to discover the most beautiful natural sites in Spain, such as the beaches of the Cabo de Gata Natural Park in Andalusia.

With Barcelona only 7 hours by train from Paris and soon to be accessible by night train, you can explore Spain with a reduced carbon footprint.

The must-sees of ecological tourism in Spain

Madrid

Central point of the country, the capital is worth an extended stop. Visit the museums of the Art Triangle, admire the art galleries of the Las Letras district or enjoy the vibrant nightlife: Madrid has a lot to offer! For eco-friendly accommodation just a stone's throw from the historic center and close to the train station, book your stay at Sleep'n Atocha. Comfortable and soundproofed rooms will allow you to spend a relaxing stay in Madrid. The hotel's rooftop offers a bar, a tapas menu and a splendid view of the city's rooftops for convivial evenings.

Catalonia

Visiting Barcelona and exploring the sunny Costa Brava are among the must-dos on a trip to Catalonia. However, the region is full of treasures outside of the usual tourist areas, such as:

  • The Natural Park of the Ebro Delta, a privileged place to observe pink flamingos, but also more than 400 other bird species;
  • Montserrat Natural Park. Discover a luxuriant nature only 50 km from Barcelona and let yourself be tempted by one of the many hikes that criss-cross the park;
  • Rupit. This small village accessible only on foot by a suspension bridge promises a calm and peaceful atmosphere and a pleasant walk between its stone houses.
  • For a quiet stay in Catalonia, book your nights at the Avenc, a hotel in Tavertet installed in an old restored farmhouse. The place is located in a natural environment conducive to relaxation and offers services dedicated to relaxation and well-being.

The Canaries

Is it still necessary to present this archipelago of volcanic islands off the coast of Morocco? Enjoying a mild and pleasant temperature all year round, the Canaries will allow you to fill up on sun and vitamin D! Each island offers its own unique atmosphere and its own exotic universe:

  • Lanzarote, the island of a thousand volcanoes, is home to lunar landscapes and ash deserts that will certainly leave you breathless. A pioneer of sustainable tourism in the Canary Islands, thanks in particular to Cesar Manrique who actively fought against real estate speculation, Lanzarote offers an authentic experience without high buildings or billboards;
  • La Gomera, a small green island off the coast of Tenerife, is a paradise for hikers. Steep cliffs, refreshing gorges and ocean views await you.
  • Tenerife offers a variety of atmospheres and landscapes not to be missed. Between the preserved and amazing nature of the natural park of Teide, the hidden beaches of the north of the island or the colonial towns, like La Laguna, you will not be able to get bored.

Do you want to stay in Lanzarote? Then book your stay at the Eco Fisherman's Cottage! This charming villa in the village of Arrieta offers you a beautiful sea view and an ecological getaway in an off-grid house powered by solar panels.

For a vacation dedicated to well-being in Tenerife, discover the EcoHotel El Agua, a holistic health resort to invigorate body and mind. Find peace and serenity in Villa Olivo, an authentic stone house nestled in tropical gardens.
