What Works Well

  • The Real Alcázar de Sevilla is easier to enjoy in March than in April, before Holy Week crowds thicken the palace gardens.
  • Archivo de Indias and the Museo del Baile Flamenco make solid back-up plans on one of March’s 11.8 rainy days.
  • At 8.8 sunshine hours a day, Sevilla still gives you enough daylight for the Catedral de Sevilla and a long city-center walk.

What Needs Planning

  • 11.8 rainy days in March can interrupt long outdoor stretches around the Real Alcázar de Sevilla.
  • Semana Santa preparations make the center busier near the Catedral de Sevilla as late March approaches.
  • March is less settled than February in Sevilla, because Holy Week processions begin late March or early April and change the rhythm fast.
