We want to go on vacation to Spain for 10 days 5 days we want to spend in Barcelona and 5 days somewhere on the beach in the south. Anybody can suggest the best combination?

The best connected airport with Barcelona is Malaga.
Malaga province has lots of beach places, now dependig in what you want,
active, sport related, night life,
quiet, luxury, budget...
Good questions will get good answers

Thank you for your reply. We are looking for relaxing and comfortable vacation on the beach. We have enough "night life" with our baby daughter ;-) What about those islands near Spain?

When are you going to Spain? Depending on the time of the year, the beaches closer to Barcelona may be a better option than those on the Costa del Sol (ie the South).

we are going at the end of May

At the End of May your best weather bet is South, Malaga.
The "Costa Brava" , coast area near Barcelona and Mallorca can be windy and uncomfortable, it is a matter of chance.
Price wise of course to stay in Barcelona or around will be cheaper than to fly to Mallorca or Malaga.
If is your fisrt time in Spain I think that going to Malaga will give a different part of the country to visit.

how about ibiza

Ibiza is something else. I LOVE it. My DH would not step foot anywhere near it.

I implore you to really read up on it...even get some internet pictures of Ibiza and its nightlife, beache activity etc. before you just go...

Happy Travels,
