Is the tap water in Spain alright? When I was in Tenerife recently, I bought bottled water even though I never ever buy it at home. They also had quite a lot of (non carbonated, non flavored) bottled water in the stores compared to my country.
I come from a country with very good tap water so is it possible that the water is technically fine but not great or something you would like to drink?
Well, Tenerife is Spain, but it’s 1700km away, so it’s not the best example.
Still, it depends on where in Spain we talk about, you can see in This map . It’s not that the water is bad, it’s that in many places it has minerals like calcium that gives them undesired taste, but its perfectly safe. I live in one of those black places and most people buy bottled water. I use a Britta.
Indeed, La Palma (just a bit to the west of Tenerife) has amazing tap water. Northern Spain as well.
