Cannabis laws in Spain

Spanish people love smoking weed and their laws reflect that fact. Selling and trafficking cannabis is illegal and punishable by jail, but when it comes to personal use, things are much more relaxed. As a matter of fact, the possession and cultivation of cannabis are legal in private spaces. That means that you are allowed to have, or even grow weed in your house, but the second you step outside, you’re breaking the law.

Luckily, possession of marijuana for personal use is a misdemeanor and you will only get a fine and have your weed confiscated if the cops catch you. There are a lot of people smoking joints in public, and generally, it’s pretty safe, as long as you keep an eye out for the police. Smoking a weed on the beach, at night is pretty common and you shouldn’t encounter any problems doing it.
