Spain has many dialects. Dialects can be so specific that a particular village can be identified. A Spaniard in Madrid identified me as being from Rota, Spain. His statement was "I'm from Jerez, and I recognize the accent". I learned a lot of my pronunciation, up to that time, in Rota. Jerez is a city about 20 miles away. Neither of those locations speak Castilian Spanish.

If you are asking about languages then it has one official language Castilian Spanish. It also has three other regional languages, Galician, Catalan, and Basque. These are completely stand alone languages that are not Spanish based.
