Feel free driving your own small motor boat in Valencia. Based at the city's central marina, these 16 foot (5 metre) boat rentals take up to 6 people and you don't need a licence to hire them.
Valencia was ranked the best city in the world for expats in 2020, in a study of more than 66 global destinations.
More urban artworks are appearing around Valencia marina, as 10 artists are given free rein to paint and spray 10 walls around the docks.
Valencia is experiencing higher numbers of COVID cases again, but less than much of Europe and it is not currently under lockdown. We won't pretend now is a good moment to visit (or go on holiday anywhere of course) but Valencia is organised and ready to reopen to tourism fully later this year when the pandemic permits, so now is a good time to plan your escape and things to do when you get here.
Valencia is feeling as festive as ever with decorations around the city and a host of seasonal activities and attractions to visit.
