...e expensive. To be honest, in rural areas, life or transport without your own means of transport is well nigh Impossible.

I am afraid your best option is for your partner to hire a car. Driving here is not as bad as you may think and will be much more convenient. But one small word of advice, it can be difficult actually driving into Orba as such, unless you are very familiar with it, due to many one way streets and no entry roads. It’s much more simple to park on the edges, dependent from where you are coming, and walk into the town, it’s usually no more than a five minute walk. I speak from experience!!!

I agree with Stephanie. There is a British guy, legal taxi, in Pedreguer near to Orba. Here is his number

You would need to pre book and give him a definite time and collection address. If you do, please mention Steve in Beniarbeig, it doesn't get me a discount but it's good for him to know who's recommending him.

Orba has a fairly large number of British residents by the way but public transport is extremely limited.

As you enter Orba there's free parking on the right, a little further on there's lots of parking behind the supermarket Mas y Mas, I'd suggest buy something and put the receipt on your dashboard although they probably never check who's there.
