Almería

Almería’s airport is located 9 kilometres east of the city. Although it's not a big airport, its facilities are modern, with a café, a terrace, and easily accessible arrivals and departures located on the main ground floor. Bus 30 operates from the arrivals terminal to the city centre every hour, seven days a week, 365 days a year. The journey takes about 35 minutes.

The Intermodal station serves as the primary transportation hub, accommodating both bus and train services. It connects Almería to other major cities in Andalucia and Madrid Atocha, which takes around six hours. There are also ferry connections to Morocco and Algeria. As of now, Almería does not have a high-speed rail line. The closest high-speed train line is located in Murcia, which can reach Madrid in 2 hours and 45 minutes. In terms of bus services, Alsa is the primary company operating at the Intermodal station.

If you are unsure about visa requirements, it's advisable to contact the Spanish embassy in your country or region.
