As a result, it&#8217;s particularly great for people-watching!<\/p>\r\n<p>Just find a grassy spot in the shade to hang out and observe the rhythms of local life. You&#8217;ll see talented musicians, groups coming together to do yoga, little kids blowing bubbles and so much more!

An obvious choice for this would be a flamenco performance, which are best seen in <a href=\"\/blog\/5-places-see-flamenco-seville\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Seville<\/a> or <a href=\"\/blog\/where-to-see-flamenco-in-madrid\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Madrid<\/a>.

Solo travel in Spain can be exhilarating, but it can also wear you out.

This popular beach is a lot of fun, but can get quite crowded and touristy. Instead, we recommend getting away from the hustle and bustle of the city and taking the train to a lesser-known beach! These beaches are also a great option for solo travelers because it&#8217;s safer to leave your things unattended while you swim.

Many first-time solo travelers are taken aback by the thought of sitting in a bar or restaurant by themselves. Luckily, social eating platforms such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eatwith.com\/search?q=spain&amp;playlist&amp;page=1&amp;datefrom=2018-08-21&amp;dateto=2018-11-19&amp;nbguests&amp;pricemin=0&amp;pricemax=99999999&amp;view=list&amp;c=USD\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Eatwith<\/a> exist specifically for travelers who find themselves in these situations.<\/p>\r\n<p>From <a href=\"https:\/\/devourtours.com\/tours\/madrid-cooking-class\/\">cooking classes<\/a> to rooftop dinner parties and so much more, you&#8217;ll be able to experience a meal with a local and maybe even end the day with a new friend. Another great option is to join a <a href=\"https:\/\/devourtours.com\/tours\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">food tour<\/a> and step inside the bars and restaurants locals have loved for generations. Again, you&#8217;ll <a href=\"https:\/\/devourtours.com\/blog\/best-tour-solo-traveler-madrid\/\">meet great new people and eat the most authentic food<\/a> at the places locals know best!<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-image size-full wp-image-8963\">\r\n<figure class=\"img-responsive\" class=\"aligncenter\">\r\n<figure id=\"attachment_2613\" class=\"thumbnail wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"width: 1210px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"img-responsive\" class=\"wp-image-2613\" src=\"https:\/\/wordpress-assets-devourtours.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/group-toasting-with-red-wine-at-la-plata-barcelona-scaled.jpeg\" alt=\"Group of people seated around a table toasting with small glasses of red wine.\" width=\"1200\" height=\"801\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wordpress-assets-devourtours.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/group-toasting-with-red-wine-at-la-plata-barcelona-scaled.jpeg 2560w, https:\/\/wordpress-assets-devourtours.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/group-toasting-with-red-wine-at-la-plata-barcelona-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/wordpress-assets-devourtours.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/group-toasting-with-red-wine-at-la-plata-barcelona-1024x683.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/wordpress-assets-devourtours.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/group-toasting-with-red-wine-at-la-plata-barcelona-768x513.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/wordpress-assets-devourtours.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/group-toasting-with-red-wine-at-la-plata-barcelona-1536x1025.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/wordpress-assets-devourtours.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/group-toasting-with-red-wine-at-la-plata-barcelona-2048x1367.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/wordpress-assets-devourtours.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/group-toasting-with-red-wine-at-la-plata-barcelona-330x220.jpeg 330w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><figcaption class=\"caption wp-caption-text\">Sharing a meal with fellow travelers is a great way to learn about the world!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n<\/figure>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Meet_new_friends_who_share_the_same_interests\"><\/span>Meet new friends who share the same interests<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>These days, it&#8217;s easier than ever for solo travelers to find locals and fellow tourists alike who have things in common with them. Platforms such as Meetup were created to bring together those who share common interests and provide fun activities. These events tend to attract both locals and expats in an international community, so you have the potential to meet friends from all over the world! If you&#8217;re staying at a hostel, ask at the reception about any events they may organize as well and take advantage of the unique setting to meet new people.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-image size-full wp-image-8964\">\r\n<figure class=\"img-responsive\" class=\"aligncenter\">\r\n<figure id=\"attachment_1538\" class=\"thumbnail wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"width: 1210px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"img-responsive\" class=\"wp-image-1538 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/wordpress-assets-devourtours.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Wine-Tasting-_-Tapas21.jpg\" alt=\"4 glasses on the table of red wine at a wine tasting.\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wordpress-assets-devourtours.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Wine-Tasting-_-Tapas21.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/wordpress-assets-devourtours.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Wine-Tasting-_-Tapas21-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wordpress-assets-devourtours.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Wine-Tasting-_-Tapas21-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/wordpress-assets-devourtours.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Wine-Tasting-_-Tapas21-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wordpress-assets-devourtours.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Wine-Tasting-_-Tapas21-330x220.jpg 330w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><figcaption class=\"caption wp-caption-text\">Our meetup of choice: a wine tasting!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n<\/figure>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Start_a_travel_journal_and_stick_to_it\"><\/span>Start a travel journal (and stick to it!)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Solo travel in Spain can be an incredibly personal experience. Keep track of your journey and reflect on your travels by starting a journal. Find a peaceful park, like Retiro in Madrid, or a buzzing cafe where you can sit and write. Note observations that have surprised you, memorable events or sights you&#8217;ve seen, and just how you&#8217;re feeling in general about the whole experience. You may be surprised what you can learn about yourself simply by putting pen to paper.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Get_lost_in_a_good_book\"><\/span>Get lost in a good book<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>After all, reading can be considered a journey as well! Whether you want to read about <a href=\"\/blog\/books-to-read-about-spain\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Spain itself<\/a> or get lost in a completely different world, sometimes solo travel calls for kicking back and relaxing with a good book. Most major cities will have bookstores that offer reading material in English. A few of our favorites are <a href=\"https:\/\/desperateliterature.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Desperate Literature in Madrid<\/a> <em>(Calle de Campomanes, 13)\u00a0<\/em>and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.hibernianbooks.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Hibernian Books in Barcelona<\/a> (<em><span class=\"LrzXr\">Carrer del Montseny, 17<\/span><\/em>).<\/p>\r\n<p>With so much to gain from traveling solo in Spain, the only question left to ask is &#8220;Where to next?&#8221;.<\/p>\r\n<p><i>Update notice: This blog post was updated on July 25, 2023.<\/i><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>If Barcelona, Madrid, Sevilla or San Sebastian make their way onto your itinerary, be sure to include one of Devour award-winning tours.
