The latest official data indicates that 105,646 Indian tourists traveled to Spain to enjoy their holidays last year. The average stay was 7, 8 nights which makes it a total of approximately 780,000 nights. The main destinations that Indian tourists visited continue to be Barcelona, Madrid, Andalusia, Valencia and Ibiza.
