May begins the height of the tourist season and can also result in larger crowds as well as higher costs associated with hotel rooms and flights. However, visitors are pretty much guaranteed that all restaurants and sights are open and all tours have resumed after the chill of the winter months. May is an excellent time to visit as mainland Spain can still be subject to a few late season cool blasts of air.
