But even in the world’s second-most-visited country, there are plentiful pockets of calm and seclusion to be found off the main tourist trail. From laid-back fishing ports and ancient fortified towns to tiny coastal enclaves and cobblestoned pueblos blancos (white villages), these are just some of the pretty Spanish small towns and villages to save for when the quiet life calls.
