Almeria Airport transfers 24/7: hotels, city centre and coast
Almeria Airport (LEI) is the gateway to the Costa de Almeria. From the terminal, we arrange private transfers directly to the city centre, coastal destinations —Roquetas de Mar, Aguadulce, El Ejido and Mojacar— and destinations outside the province such as Granada, Malaga and Murcia.
It is a well-organised alternative to waiting at the taxi rank or relying on bus timetables: your driver is assigned before you land and your fare is fixed in advance. For journeys within the city, you can also book our private transfers in Almeria city.
How to get from Almeria Airport to the city centre
Almeria Airport is around 9 km from the city centre, with a typical journey time of about 15 minutes by car. The airport is east of the city, close to the coast, and connected to the centre via the Nijar road and the N-340a. With a private transfer, you are collected from arrivals and dropped off directly at your hotel, the Intermodal Station or any address in the city centre.
Private transfer or taxi
Direct and door to door, taking around 15 minutes, with a fixed fare and your driver waiting in arrivals. Ideal when travelling with luggage, family or on a late-night flight.
Bus
A bus service connects the airport with the city and the Intermodal Station. It is the most economical option, but includes intermediate stops and operates to a limited timetable.
Car hire
Car hire companies operate from the terminal, which can be useful if you plan to travel around the province for several days. However, you will need to arrange parking in the city centre.
For a direct journey with no waiting and a fixed fare from the outset, a private transfer is the most straightforward way to reach Almeria city centre.
