An eSIM for Spain, from the First Metro Ride
An eSIM for Spain gives you prepaid mobile data without buying a physical SIM after you land. Use it to pull up tickets at the Sagrada Familia, find your way to a tapas bar in Valencia or send photos from the coast. It's a data-only plan that lives on your phone and connects through Spanish partner networks.
The plans follow the shape of a Spanish trip. Spain-only plans run from a small allowance up to 60 GB, with up to 60 days of validity, long enough for the full Camino de Santiago. A city break can use a one-day unlimited plan or a seven-day stopover pack, and if you're also exploring Europe, a regional plan covers Spain with its neighbours.
You pay once, upfront, which helps you control travel data spending. Your account dashboard shows how much is left, and a low-data alert arrives before your allowance runs out.
Spain eSIM Coverage on Orange Spain and TelefóNica
Your Spain eSIM connects to major local networks, Orange Spain and Telefónica Móviles España, and your phone automatically connects to available supported partner networks for your plan. In Madrid, Barcelona and Valencia, data is reliable for maps and tickets, though a packed match day or festival can still slow things down.
The mountains need more planning. Expect gaps in the gorges of Picos de Europa National Park along the Ruta del Cares, high in Ordesa y Monte Perdido National Park and on quiet stretches of the Camino de Santiago between villages. Download maps and accommodation details while you still have a good connection.
On the islands, towns and resorts are generally well covered, but signal thins on the upper slopes of Teide National Park and on ferries away from shore. AVE high-speed trains have short drops in tunnels, so save tickets offline before you board.
Check your remaining data in your EscapeSIM dashboard before a long day at the Alhambra or a stage of the Camino.
An alert arrives before your data runs out, so you're not left without maps on the way back from Park Güell.
On plans that support top-ups, add more data to the same eSIM instead of starting again mid-trip.
Your home SIM stays on for calls and texts, while the Spain eSIM handles maps, WhatsApp and train apps.

Why Travellers Choose Our Spain eSIM
Unlimited Days in the City
Streaming on the train, video calls home and a camera roll full of Barcelona all add up. A one-day unlimited plan means you don't count megabytes on your busiest sightseeing days.
Unlimited plans in the wider Europe saver range run from one day up to 30 days, so they suit a Madrid weekend or a longer trip.
Light users can take a 1 GB or 3 GB stopover pack valid for seven days, which covers maps and messaging on a short visit.
Validity Long Enough for the Camino
Walking the full Camino de Santiago takes most people over a month. Spain-only plans range from 1 GB to 60 GB, with validity from 14 to 60 days.
Pilgrims mostly use maps, messaging and albergue bookings, which add up to about half a gigabyte daily. Pick a plan that covers your days, then top up on supported plans if you need more.
Villages along the route usually have signal, but the stretches between them can be quiet, so save the next stage before you set off each morning.
Ready for the Islands
Island trips mix busy resorts with remote beaches and volcanic peaks. Plan for gaps before you head beyond the towns.
Playa de Ses Illetes and Playa del Inglés are popular, but quieter coves nearby can have weaker signal. Save directions and return times before leaving your hotel.
The Teide National Park Summit Trail climbs well above the coastal towns of Tenerife, so carry offline maps and check the weather before you go.
Cheaper Than Daily Roaming from Australia
Travellers flying in from Australia usually pay a daily roaming fee to their home carrier, which adds up over a fortnight in Spain. A prepaid Spain eSIM replaces that with one upfront cost.
Install the eSIM on Wi-Fi before you leave, then turn off roaming on your home SIM when you land. Your Australian number still receives calls and texts.
Your EscapeSIM data and any home-carrier charges for calls or texts are separate, so check your carrier's terms if you use your home line.
Who Our Spain eSIM Suits
Book albergues, check the next stage and message home from the trail, on a plan that runs for up to two months.
Join video calls from Impact Hub Madrid or Utopicus between meetings, and size up your plan if calls fill your day.
Use ride wait-time apps and digital tickets at PortAventura World or Parque Warner Madrid without relying on park Wi-Fi.
Find beach car parks, ferry times and dinner spots on Mallorca, Ibiza or Tenerife, with offline maps for the quieter coves.
Spain eSIM Questions
Match the plan to your trip. A short Madrid or Barcelona break suits unlimited day data or a small stopover pack. For two weeks or more, or the Camino, take a Spain-only plan sized to your usage, which can last up to two months. If you're also visiting other countries, pick a regional Europe plan instead.
Maps, messaging, browsing and some social media come to roughly 0.5 GB a day, so a week of light use fits in about 3 GB to 5 GB. Video streaming and video calls use about 1 GB per hour, so plan bigger or go unlimited if you do either. Track your usage in the EscapeSIM dashboard.
Yes, on recent iPhone models that support eSIM and are carrier-unlocked. Recent Samsung Galaxy and Google Pixel models work too. Your iPhone can hold the Spain eSIM for data alongside your home SIM for calls and texts, and you choose which line handles mobile data in Settings. If you bought it on a contract, confirm it is unlocked before you travel.
Yes. These are data-only plans without a Spanish phone number, so on a dual-SIM phone your home SIM stays active for calls and texts. To call a hotel or restaurant in Spain, use WhatsApp or another internet calling app over your eSIM data.
Yes, where supported partner networks reach. Towns and resorts on Mallorca, Ibiza, Tenerife and Gran Canaria are generally well covered, while mountain roads, remote coves and ferry crossings can be weaker. Check your plan's product page for its coverage before you fly.
Spain plans use Orange Spain and Telefónica as supported partner networks. Your phone automatically connects to available supported partner networks, and which one you get depends on your plan and location. No network reaches every gorge or summit, so save maps before remote hikes.
For most trips, yes. Australian carriers usually charge a daily roaming fee, while a prepaid Spain eSIM is one upfront cost for your travel data. Install it before you fly, switch your data to the eSIM on arrival, and keep your Australian number active for calls and texts.
It depends on your route and how much data you use. Choose a Spain-only plan for a long stay or the Camino, unlimited for heavy use in the cities, a stopover pack for a short visit and a Europe plan if you're crossing into other countries. Every plan is prepaid, with a usage dashboard and 24/7 support.
