What you need to know about eSIMs in Spain
Spain runs on three major networks — Movistar, Vodafone and MasOrange (which now bundles Orange, Yoigo and MasMovil). Movistar remains the strongest network in rural areas and smaller towns, covering 99.8% of the population, including the coasts (Costa del Sol, Costa Brava) and the islands (Balearic, Canary). Orange has the most extensive urban coverage, where it and Vodafone are closely matched; Movistar keeps the edge in the rural interior.
If you’re traveling from another EU country, your home plan already covers Spain for free under "roam like at home" — just check your plan’s roaming data cap, which is often lower than your domestic allowance. For non-EU visitors, a local prepaid eSIM starts around €10 for 60–90GB. Compare Airalo, Saily, Holafly and others above by real price-per-GB.
