Today is the feast day of San Bernabé, marking the 1485 reconquest of Marbella and the height of its annual fair.
Weather across the region
Inland cities like Sevilla and Córdoba are heating up, with highs hitting the mid-thirties, so seek out those shaded patios. The Costa del Sol and Almería remain lovely in the high twenties thanks to sea breezes, while the Atlantic coast feels fresher. Up in the Sierra Nevada, it is perfect hiking weather before the sun gets too high. Evenings are becoming wonderfully mild, especially for tonight's open-air music in Granada.
