Almeria has direct
connections with the next European cities:
FROM ALMERIA AIRPORT TO
ALMERIA (~9 km)
By Bus:
Number 20 (0.75 euro). Schedule: from 7:20 to 21:55 every hour. Please, see
the map for arrival-departure details. Estimated price by Taxi around 15
euros.
You
can also come via Alicante, Murcia or Malaga.
Map 1 shows the
route from ALICANTE. You must take A-7
highway direction to Murcia. This highway is connected with A-92 which
finishes in Almeria. The duration of your trip will be a maximum of 2 hours
and 30 minutes. Map 2 shows the
route from MALAGA.
From Malaga you have
two different routes, through the coast or through the interior via Granada. In duration in both
routes you will spend the same time, 2 hours and 30 minutes more or less,
but in distance, the coast route is smaller. Malaga – Almeria
through the coast. The main problem of
this route is that the road is not a highway, so if the traffic is intense
you will travel slowly. However, the landscape will be worth. You have to
take N-340 direction to Motril and this is direct to Almeria. Malaga – Almeria
through the interior. From the Airport you have to take direction to Malaga. Once there take A-92 highway direction to Granada and after (without entering in Granada) direction to Almeria.
Almeria is a province with mountains and sea which can be considered the most Mediterranean of the Andalusian provinces. The deep blue of the waters, the dazzling sky, the majestic landscapes, its popular geometrical architecture reflect the atmosphere to be found along the banks of the Mediterranean sea which emphasises its historical past. The weather in June is wonderful. The night is very mild and the day is warn, about 30 degrees, so you can go to the beach without problems. The capital, which one writer once described as the most "African" of Spanish cities due to the exotic picture it protrays, is a perfect summary of the province's mood. It is situated at the center of a golf, decorated with rocky outcrops and dominated by the silhouette of the ALCAZABA, the fortress that Abderraman III ordered to be built in the 10th century.
Near the cathedral is the center of the town. It has small streets and pretty parks to rest during your visit. The main street is called PASEO DE ALMERÍA.
Almeria is crossed by a (dry) river. Now, it is a very beatufil avenue called LA RAMBLA wich goes from the harbour to the north part of the town.
Almeria is also well-know because of the TAPAS. If you go to a bar and ask for a beer, a glass of wine, etc. then you can choose a small plate of food from a long list and the price (about 1'5 Euro) is the same. Here or here you a have a guide for some places to "tapear".
A trail of fishing villages, such as San José or Agua Amarga, are scattered along the coast to the tourist enclave of Mojácar.
Beyond it is the only desert to be found in Europe, the TABERNAS DESERT, an area of extreme dryness with a lunar landscape scarred by ravines and gullies. Its dramatic features have been immortalised in films as its has been used as the backdrop for numerous westerns.
Here, you have some MAPS of the city:
