Granada International Airport (GRX)
Granada has one small airport, located 17 kilometres west of the city. The airport maintains a scheduled traffic link with Madrid and Barcelona. You can reach the city centre by bus or taxi. The trip lasts approximately 30–45 minutes. Five daily buses operated by Autocares J. Gonzáles run between the airport and the city centre. Many people fly to Malaga and then take a bus or a train to Granada. Malaga airport is located approximately 123 kilometres from Granada and there are regular bus services between the two cities.
Passport & Visa
Citizens of European Union (EU) and European Economic Area (EEA) countries do not need a visa to enter Spain, only a valid ID. Many other countries, including the United Kingdom, United States, Canada, United Arab Emirates, Australia, and New Zealand, benefit from visa-free entry for short stays of up to 90 days within a 180-day period. Visitors from visa-exempt countries must hold a valid passport and, starting in late 2025, will need to apply for an ETIAS (European Travel Information and Authorisation System) authorisation online before travelling. For those requiring a visa, such as travellers from some Middle-East, African or Asian nations, a Schengen visa must be obtained prior to arrival. All travellers should ensure their passport is valid for at least three months beyond their intended stay.
Best Time to Visit
The best time to visit Granada is probably late Spring or early Summer (May and June): natural beauty is at its best, and the temperatures are mostly pleasant. Be aware that in July and August the weather can be very hot. At times, temperatures may reach higher than 35°C.
Public transport
City buses are clean and convenient and the main bus station is just outside of town. Tourist offices normally offer a free pamphlet that shows local routes. There are two ways to buy your ticket. If there's a ticket machine at your bus station, you must necessarily buy and validate it there (it won't be possible to buy one on the bus from that stop). If there isn't a ticket machine at your bus station, then you will have to buy your ticket on the bus.
Train
The train station is located 1.5 km North West outside of the city centre and it's easily accessible by foot or by bus. There are daily trains to popular cities such as Algeciras, Antequera and Ronda.
Taxi
You will find a taxi rank at Plaza Nueva. If you want to hail one on the street, make sure that it's displaying a green light or a sign saying "libre" (which means vacant). It is also possible to order a taxi by phone.
Post
The post offices often have long queues. If you only need stamps, they can be purchased at many local tobacco shops. The post boxes are yellow and bear the sign "correos".
Hospitals & Pharmacy
Both hospitals are central with good emergency facilities and some doctors who speak English. Hospital Clínico San Cecillio Avenida del Doctor Oloriz 16 +34 958 02 32 17 Hospital Ruiz De Alda Avenida de la Constitución 100 +34 958 02 00 09 Thanks to a system called “farmacias de guardia” ("duty pharmacies"), pharmacies in Granada takes turns so that you will always find one open in the city. When any pharmacy is closed, it posts the name of the closest open pharmacy on the door.
