Visiting Seville in June means experiencing the vibrant heart of Andalusia at the height of its summer charm. While the temperatures start to rise, it doesn't mean you can't make the most of each day. This refreshing guide is designed to help you enjoy the best of Seville in summer, with ideas perfectly suited to the season — especially if you're staying at Apartamentos Puerta del Sur, your comfortable and convenient base for exploring the city at your own pace.
Start Early: Must-See Sights Without the Crowds
Early mornings are ideal for visiting Seville's most iconic landmarks, taking advantage of the cooler air and quieter streets.
Begin your day at the Royal Alcázar, where the shaded gardens and Mudejar architecture offer a cool and peaceful experience. Then, head to the majestic Seville Cathedral, and climb the Giralda bell tower before the midday sun takes hold.
Finish your morning at the stunning Plaza de España, one of Seville’s most picturesque spots — perfect for photos in the soft morning light.
Evening Strolls: Triana, Alameda and the Guadalquivir
As the sun begins to set, Seville transforms. The temperature drops, and the city’s neighbourhoods come alive with charm and energy. Triana, just across the Isabel II Bridge, is the perfect place to wander, with its flamenco soul and traditional streets.
Another great option is the Alameda de Hércules, always bustling with terraces, street performers and a laid-back atmosphere — ideal for dinner or drinks. For something more peaceful, stroll along the banks of the Guadalquivir River, where the city lights reflect beautifully on the water.
Flavours in the Shade: Terraces with Charm and Cool Breezes
In summer, finding a good meal with a touch of shade is a must. Seville boasts a wide selection of terraces with charm, where you can relax and escape the heat.
Near Apartamentos Puerta del Sur, you’ll find local favourites like La Barra de Cañabota or Bodega Palo Santo, both known for creative Andalusian cuisine. For something more casual, check out the Triana Market or the open-air Alameda 84, ideal for a refreshing beer and classic tapas.
Water Plans: Pools and Cool Outdoor Activities
When the heat becomes intense, water is your best ally. Seville offers several public and private swimming pools, including those at Centro Deportivo Tiro de Línea and Club Social Río Grande, perfect for a calm, refreshing break.
Looking for something more adventurous? Try a water activity on the Guadalquivir, such as kayaking or paddle surfing. It’s a unique way to see the city — and cool down at the same time.

Just 30 minutes from the city, Carmona is the perfect choice for an afternoon escape. With its historic centre, shaded squares and panoramic viewpoints, it's a peaceful and slightly cooler retreat.
Other nearby towns worth visiting include Osuna, Utrera, and the peaceful gardens of the Monastery of San Isidoro del Campo, ideal for a short cultural break.
