Me and a few mates are looking to get a trip together to southern Europe in mid/end June. We want to find the best destination for us at that time of year. We are looking for quality and quantity in the 6b,6c,7a grade range. We were looking at Ceuse, but want to make sure there's nothing we're overlooking/more appropriate. Thanks.

June may be hot on Mallorca.
But climb early & late. Drink at noon.

You might want to consider the crags in Pete O'Donovan's guidebook to LLeida as they include a lot of stuff that is either shaded for some of the time or is further into the Pyrenees and therefore higher. His book is excellent but there's a ton of real quality climbing in each of the areas, info for which can be found in the local guidebooks/climbers bars. This area would be particularly good of you want multi-pitch sport.

Asturias also good. You'll have to hunt a bit for shade but I'm assured it's cooler than the rest of Spain. Climbing excellent and it's a beautiful place. It's quiet - no one goes there!
