I would say you can lower risks by mostly eating outdoors and wearing a mask indoors the last few days of your trip. Given the time of year and nice weather, that would be not difficult to do. Great time of year to be in Spain.
This is good advice. I live in Cadiz and things are pretty normal here with a very low incidence rate. That's not to say it's not still around but if you use common sense, mask up in close quarters and practice good hygiene, you should be fine. I take all cafe and restaurant visits outside. The weather is fine and there usually is a nice breeze. Spain only publishes it's incidence rate twice a week but generally the rates have been relatively lower than most other European major countries such as Germany, France and Italy.
