Buses Between Almuñécar and Granada
The buses operated by the Alsa company (telephone: 902 422 242)
run nine times a day between Granada (departing from the Granada Bus Station)
and Almuñécar (Almuñécar Bus Station), with departures between 7:00 and 20:00.
Also, there are regular bus services from Nerja, La Herradura, Torre del Mar and Salobreña.
The ticket price ranges between 7 and 8 euros, and the journey typically takes between 1 hour and 15 minutes to 2 hours.
Please pay attention to the duration of the trip when selecting a ticket,
as some buses may not have direct routes and make stops in the villages of Armilla,
Alhendín, Cázulas, Lentegí, Otívar and Jete, that's why it takes longer.
The fastest bus from Granada to Almuñécar departs from the Granada Bus Station and makes two or three stops before reaching the Almuñécar Bus Station: in Salobreña (55 minutes), La Caleta next to Salobreña (1 hour) and Taramay (1 h and 05 m, does not always stop here).
Tickets can be purchased on the Alsa website, alsa.es.
