Christmas camps in Spain — campus de Navidad, English weeks, sports and nature camps between 19 December and 7 January — are mostly day camps, with a mix of indoor and outdoor activities. Mornings can be cold, especially inland and in the north, while afternoons on the coast may be mild. Layers are the answer.
