Car Hire

If you are going to hire a car from Almeria Airport you will find that there are good motorway links to resorts along the eastern coast of Spain with the AL-12 motorway and A-7 Autovia nearby. If you drive north you will reach Murcia in about two hours and down south you will reach Malaga, Marbella and the Costa del Sol in around three hours.  

When driving in Spain it is worth remembering a few basic rules, one of which is to take extra care when driving in or out of service stations or restaurants on the other side of the road. Also when you are overtaking on an unfamiliar road allow more space than you would normally so you can see further down road ahead.

If you are thinking of hiring a car, gone are the days when you could drink and drive in Spain as they now have (and rigorously enforce) very strict drinking laws which are even lower than in the UK. If you are new driver do not attempt to drink and drive here.

Seat belts in the front and rear of the hire car must be worn by law and subject to a fine if you don't belt up.

Spanish speed limits are strongly implemented with frequent radar traps and speeding and other traffic offences are subject to on the spot (and sometimes pretty hefty) fines.

Having sounded off a few warnings, don't feel worried about driving here as the area surrounding Almeria really is a joy to explore and the only way you can get to places off the beaten track at your own speed is to hire a car. If you prebook your vehicle it will save time when you land at the airport and also ensure that any extras (child seats, roof racks, GPS) are fitted in advance.

It's advisable to buy a few maps of the area as signposting is not always great, but the roads are in good condition and a lot less busy than main UK roads.
