Spain eSIM: cities, coast and islands covered
5 min read · Updated July 5, 2026
Spain is a long, varied trip — tapas in Madrid, Gaudí in Barcelona, white villages in Andalusia, a beach in Mallorca. A Spain eSIM keeps maps, Renfe tickets and translation working across the mainland and the islands from the moment you land.
Which networks you get
A Spain travel eSIM roams on Orange and Movistar, two of the country’s strongest operators, choosing the best signal automatically. Coverage is 5G/LTE across the cities and the AVE high-speed rail, and solid LTE in rural Andalusia, Galicia and the islands.
How much data for Spain
Maps, Renfe/Cercanías apps, restaurant lookups and messaging run 300–500 MB a day; add photos and social for closer to 1 GB. A 5 GB plan suits a week; a two-week loop of cities and coast, or two people sharing, wants 10 GB+.
Balearics, Canaries and beyond
Mallorca, Ibiza and the Canary Islands are covered on the Spain plan. If your trip also takes in Portugal or France, a Europe regional eSIM covers them all on one profile.
