The north east coast of Spain is somewhere we used to go to for years in May, nice and warm but not hot. Beautiful scenery, lovely little coves, traditional catalan fishing villages, great seafood, paella, east of Girona is where you want to aim: Calella de Palafrugel, Llafranc, L'Escala, but avoid Estartit and Rosas.
Cheap flights to Girona or Perpignan, only an hour from Barcelona, and you can drive up into Andorra easily too. Also cheap flights to Perpignan which most people seem to ignore.
Why did I stop going?????

I was looking at buying out there 5 years ago, but had to wait because of circumstances. Prices gone up 500% since then :(
