Public transport
Hi folks
Does anyone have any definitive details of the bus times from Alicante to Santa Pola and return, it was mentioned in another forum that buses are now running only every two hours but don’t know if that is true. I know the tourist train is off at present but why the local bus has to stop at 1.30 I just don’t understand. If the new hotel in GA centre opens later this year, it will mean that guests, especially elderly or with children, will be marooned in GA centre with no public transport to move outside the area or even down to the beach. It seems like tourism to this area is being discouraged, which is such a shame. The taxi service is practically non existent and the airport bus is very limited too. It’s not too bad getting a taxi from the airport but I think it is expensive for the distance to GA at 20/25 euros.
We live a similar distance to our local UK airport and the cost is under £10. Does anyone know if there are any plans to increase the frequency of the buses when the hotel opens or when this Covid pandemic declines.
I would be interested to hear what people have to say on this subject.
