Travelers should note that Spain introduced new data collection procedures: hotels, rental accommodations, and even vehicle rental services collect and digitally store some of your personal details for up to three years, in line with Spanish security protocols. Authorities may access this data as part of crime prevention and investigation efforts.
Security in Spain is generally high, especially in tourist areas, but there are important precautions to take. The U.S. Embassy in September 2025 has issued a Travel Advisory Level 2, urging travelers to exercise increased caution due to terrorism and unrest. Previous incidents of terror attacks have been reported in Spain and across Europe. Demonstrations and strikes occur regularly, particularly in Catalonia and major cities, and these events can turn violent or lead to travel disruptions including blocked roads, transit delays, or interruptions at airports. Monitoring local news and avoiding large gatherings is recommended during your stay.
Petty theft, including pickpocketing and bag snatching, remains the most common crime facing tourists, particularly in crowded areas such as public transport, tourist attractions, restaurant and bar districts, hotel lobbies, and popular outdoor events. Listeners should be vigilant with their valuables, use hotel safes when possible, and not leave bags or electronics unattended in public spaces. Be especially wary of distraction techniques and never accept food or drinks from strangers as incidents of spiked drinks have occurred.
Spain has expanded its public drinking bans in 2025, now prohibiting alcohol consumption in streets, beaches, and parks, with violations subject to on-the-spot fines of up to €3,000. Stricter nightlife and alcohol sales regulations are now in effect, especially in areas with heavy tourism. Tourists should also be conscious of new short-term rental rules and increased tourist taxes in some regions.
When driving in Spain, vehicle crime sometimes targets foreign-registered or rental cars. So-called 'highway pirates' may try to lure drivers into stopping by pretending there is something wrong with their vehicle or by posing as plainclothes police. Genuine police will typically be in uniform and will not ask for your bag or wallet at a roadside check. Always stop in well-lit public areas if you need to pull over and call for assistance.
Outdoor enthusiasts should be aware that weather conditions, especially in mountain regions, can change rapidly. Altitude sickness is a risk in parts of Granada, Huesca, and Tenerife. Always follow guidance on local weather reports, beach flag warnings, and be cautious of hazardous marine life. For example, red or black flags at beaches signal dangerous or contaminated waters, and swimming is not allowed.
Mandatory travel insurance for non-EU visitors is increasingly recommended, given the strict enforcement and unpredictable nature of health and safety risks. Purchasing comprehensive coverage before your trip can help address unforeseen events such as accidents, theft, or sudden travel changes.
In summary, Spain in September 2025 is open, welcoming, and vibrant, but listeners are urged to stay alert, respect local laws, monitor official travel advisories, and prepare for enhanced security and administrative requirements. Staying informed and cautious will help ensure a smooth and safe journey.
