I'm sure their geography helps.

By the way, today was the first day, in Spain, that children under the age of fourteen (not included) could go for an hour's walk accompanied by an adult. After 43 days at home.

Given what has been seen insome big many Spanish cities and towns, a spike in infections is expected within two weeks 
. What has been said, mediocre societies elect also mediocre representatives.

No boarders , split in two low population density... Housing tends to be more spread out .
I'm sure missed something.
Apple's to oranges , very little to be gained from comparing nations like this imo
Not too sure. Auckland is over 1.5 million people and 1,300/km density, the same as my area which has been heavily infected. It’s neither warm nor especially sunny. An island like many other infected places. Lockdown was 2 days before Illinois. Here’s an interesting factoid: only 16% of kiwis say they attend church. Maybe they adhered to the lockdown better? Few prisoners in jails? Kept it out of nursing homes? There must be an epidemiological explanation.
"One size fits all" solutions are always tough to defend except they are easy and expedient. The solution for a high-density population is likely to be too onerous for a lightly-populated area. Then there are all the other demographics; age, health, lifestyle, etc. In some cases spreading out the at-risk population may be a better idea; we are letting criminals out of jail to control the spread in prison populations, but not letting relatively mobile people in retirement homes go to stay with family but instead keeping them confined in close quarters. There are risks to both strategies.

Tarragona city, Rambla Nova (pedestrian Avenue)
Tarragona city, Platja del Miracle (one of the beachs)

PS: my favourite is Savinosa beach, less urbanized and less crowded.
Allow me an update with a link with more photos.

Umm, consider this , pretend they are different countries.

Very difficult to draw any conclusions at this point . Too many variables.
This x1000.
Sure, I’m trying to identify the main variables. Most of the US map is pretty explainable on a cases/million basis.

Lots of variables and potential incompatibility wrt other nations using this strategy.
But we don't know the cases part of cases/million. So it's a garbage number.

UV may be efficacious.
The problem is that while UV likely limits the distance the virus can travel (i.e. maybe 3 ft. social distancing is adequate vs. 6 ft.) there appears to be enough spread in close conditions in warmer countries that Summer doesn't appear to be a cure all. The thing to look at is 14 days from now to see if California coastal areas have an uptick in infections.

Another variable may be the heat. It seems to me that if it's 95 degrees out there on the beach, that would really put the hurt on the virus, in addition to UV on a sunny day. But I doubt it's that hot right now on the beaches in Southern California. People love the San Diego area because of how nice it is even in the summer.
Also, it seems like, if they are going to go to the beach, people should limit their activity on the beach to staying together with the people with whom they live, since they are already exposed to each other on a continual basis and apparently not ill. And not strike up close contact with others on the beach.
