Yeah I was looking at Marbella as the location to go, I suppose Luxor would be even better but I feel like staying in the EU is less hassle for a 3-4 day trip.

Never been to Spain, but this would make for a very special first trip there

    ok, but keep in mind that Marbella is a very expensive place at all times, it is basically for gangsters and Arab sheikhs, if you want something a little more affordable you will have to look for another place

    Are you from Spain or familiar with the different areas? I'd love to pick your brain perhaps.

    One advantage of that area for me is that I can get a direct flight from Tallinn to Malaga and that area is supposed to be good for the totality anyway.

    However I'm neither King Fahd nor a gangster so if there's a cheaper place that's still fairly easily accessible for me and will have totality, I'd love to know

    I know the north of Spain, from the southernmost region (Andalusia) I have only been to Córdoba, which is beautiful but far from the eclipse.

    I would look for any place that does not live exclusively on tourism, Cadiz or Algeciras, or rather some town that is not on the coast, like Jerez de la Frontera or Ronda, also El Ejido, which lives on greenhouses, but I think it has a little less time for totality.

    I can't help you about the flights from Tallinn, but in any case that whole area is not very big, with a rental car from the airport you should be able to get around in a very short time.
