Murcia, Cartagena and the main cities on the Costa Cálida are served by urban buses. Many bus companies operate out of the central bus stations. Generally, information on routes and timetables is available from: 

  • the main bus station (usually located in the centre of town)
  • on local bus stops
  • at tourist information offices
  • at a bus stop (a plan of the bus routes may be available on the sign or shelter) 

Be aware that routes, prices and timetables are subject to change. The availability of public transport is much better in the bigger towns and cities than the rural area where it is quite sporadic.

Most public buses are new and air-conditioned.
