Guide

Getting to Los Alcázares

Two airports, two ferries, one car-friendly motorway. Plus everything you need to know about driving in Spain.

Corvera Airport (RMU) - Murcia

40 minutes by car. Direct flights from UK (London, Manchester, Birmingham, Edinburgh, Dublin), Netherlands (Amsterdam, Eindhoven), Belgium (Brussels), Germany (Berlin), Sweden (Stockholm), Norway (Oslo). Ryanair, easyJet, Jet2, Tui, KLM. Car hire on-site (cheaper than Alicante).

Alicante Airport (ALC)

60 minutes by car on the AP-7 motorway. Much wider flight network - over 100 destinations. Larger car-hire fleet, often slightly more expensive than Corvera.

Driving from the UK / NL / DE

Two-day drive via the Portsmouth–Bilbao ferry (Brittany Ferries, weekly). From Bilbao it's 9–10 hours south on motorway. From the Netherlands or Germany allow three days via France.

Car hire

Strongly recommended. Public transport between villages is limited and the area's best experiences (golf, day trips, beaches) need a car. Book ahead in school holidays.
