Driving in Spain - What You Need to Know
Moving from the well-maintained lanes of Great Britain to driving in Spain, certain differences are essential to know:
- Drive on the Right: Unlike in the UK, remember cars in Spain drive on the right side of the road.
- Roundabouts: On encountering a roundabout, give way to cars coming from the left.
- Legal Driving Age: While UK allows driving at 17, in Spain one needs to be 18 or above.
Vigo's Climate
Spain’s Galician region, where Vigo is located, experiences a temperate Oceanic climate, quite a diversion from the typical weather in the UK. Summers are long and warm while winters are moderate.
Spanish Currency
Euros (€) is the official currency adopted in Spain. Keep in mind - no pound sterling here!
Surrounding Cities - Beyond Vigo
Explore the picturesque Galician region with your rental car. Visit neighbouring cities like Pontevedra with its historic architecture, or the bustling city of Ourense, famous for its hot springs.
Car Class Recommendations
Choose a compact car for maneuverability or an SUV to comfortably accommodate your family. But for a blend of style and performance, a convertible can be the cherry on top for your Spanish holiday.
We hope you enjoy your upcoming journey to Vigo. Here's to safe and pleasant driving in Spain!
