Spain is one of those countries everybody wants to visit when traveling to Europe. And who can blame them, as there are beautiful beaches and monuments to visit. If you are a Cinephile, you might have another reason to plan your trip after watching these extraordinary movies set in Spain.
One of the reasons why we watch movies is because that is a perfect way to travel to different places while being at home. It is what inspired us to visit Australia, France, and Hawaii – among many other places. Some other times you can visit different locations and feel like you were inside the movie (thus the popularity of visiting Middle Earth / New Zealand or James Bond’s Skyfall).
This list will reveal for you those special filming locations in Spain!
Wondering where to watch? It depends on where you live in the world and which streaming services you have. We link to the streaming service we watch on in each case - be it Netflix, Amazon Prime, Apple TV+, or elsewhere.
You can get one month free of Amazon Prime (or a 6-month trial for students) of Amazon Prime and also get immediate access to FREE Two Day shipping, Amazon Video, and Music. While you won't be charged for your free trial, you'll be upgraded to a paid membership plan automatically at the end of the trial period - though if you have already binged all these, you could just cancel before the trial ends.
Apple TV+ also has a one-week trial, and Hulu has a one-month trial (which can be bundled with Disney!). Another option might be using a VPN to access Netflix titles locked to other regions. Netflix is now available in more than 190 countries worldwide and each country has a different library and availability. US Netflix is (understandably) one of the best.
While we wish everything could just be in one place - for now, it seems these are the best streaming platforms to watch on.
With that said, let’s go see some beautiful Spanish landscapes.
