Hire Cars

Murcia's San Javier airport is very close to La Manga (approx. 20 mins drive). You therefore have a number of possibilities:

Arriving at Alicante airport, you definitely need a hire car: public transport is very limited and the taxi ride is expensive. Alicante airport is about 115 kms from La Manga Club, and the journey takes about an hour and a half by the coast road or around an hour by the new toll motorway. We can supply detailed instructions upon request.

There is a wide choice of car hire firms operating out of both Alicante and San Javier airports. All speak excellent English. Among the cheapest prices we have found are Centauro, Concord and La Manga rent a car
