Is it warm enough to swim in Spain mid June time?

You're certainly not aware of the size of the country, are you? :))

Where exactly do you intend to swim?

Whether you mean the Canarian island of La Palma or Palma the capital of the island of Mallorca it should be warm enough for swimming in mid-June.

In late June yes, but early June water will be chilly.

Agree with LondonTowner, yet some Northerners (Scandinavian, Scottish... and yes, Geordies too!) say the water temperature in the Mediterranean is just perfect in May, boy I find it crazy, LOL!

Thanks we are northerners and think 70's is nice.

LOL!... I was thinking more "northeners" as European Northerners, you know, the viking-type, hahaha!

 

70s is what we have as air temperature in April/May. Most locals prefer to wait until the sea temperature reaches 73-74 or so, which happens in mid June. Right now though, air temperature is in the low 40s so I can only imagine how cold must the sea be! :)
