Malaga Arrivals
Directions from the Airport
Leave airport heading towards Malaga. After 20-30m you should reach a roundabout, go straight over, the Car Rentals depots should be on your left. Immediately after crossing the roundabout, move into the left hand lane, as the road splits keep left heading towards Malaga. On this road you take the exit for Antequera, it is approx the second exit but it is a big blue sign and well sign posted. You should now be on the N340 heading east.
Continue on this road for a few miles until you see the signs for Cartama, approx second exit. This is a smaller sign. This is a difficult junction. As you take the slip road off for Cartama keep in the left hand lane which bears left as the road splits. Then immediately move into the right hand lane looking out for traffic joining from the right.
This lane bears off right with a sign post to Cartama, you should go around until you join another dual carriage way, this is the road to Cartama and Campillos. This road takes you out of Malaga, past Cartama and north up to Campillos without turning off and takes 30 –45 mins.
As you approach Campillos you will see the town to your left but don’t take the first left turn into the town. Go on another 100m and take the second turn towards Campillos, Jerez and Cadiz. This road takes you through Campillos and straight to Algodonales, (45 mins), there is a 24 hour petrol station on the road in Campillos.

Below are a times according to the last and most current timetable available. To get to the main terminal in Malaga is easy. The hopper bus can be found roughly every half hour or possibly less just 50yrd to the right of the main entrance and taxi section. The bus costs a Euro and finishes its journey at the Malaga central depot.
Bus times below are for the Los Amarillos(green/yellow) office inside the station. Cost about 8 Euros. N.B its important to ask if your bus is a direct route or around the houses bus the difference in travel time being 1.5 – 3.5 hrs!
