The following use Catalan as well:
Barcelona
Valencia
Alicante
All the rest are Spanish only.
In Marbella everyone answers you in English.
p.s. Sorry Xavi! I forgot your dialect! (Only joking)

Except Pamplona is bi-lingal…
street signs are in Basque & Castellano…
you’ll hear Basque as much as Castellano
-_- if your going to insult me… at least can everyone on here spell Xabi xD ni naiz euskaldun… it is a Basque name with Basque spelling xD or write Jaiver instead jejejeje

2, 3, 4, 7, 8, 10, 11
and I think 5, and 9.
Go to Sevilla. Once you can understand the people there, you’ll be able to understand ANYONE who speaks Spanish, and it’s a big enough city to make travel to other parts easy.
Granada is an enchanting city as well, but less of a travel hub.
Of course, people may comment on your accent sometimes, if you really pick it up!

For the rest it’s mainly Castellano.
