Driving in Spain

On the 'Wrong' Side

As in the rest of mainland Europe, motorists in Spain drive on the right-hand side of the road. This can feel a little strange at first for those from the UK, but you’ll quickly get used to it!

Fuel Stations

There are several petrol stations near the airport, and along the main routes, where you can refuel your vehicle before return. Remember, petrol is called "gasolina" and diesel "gasoil" in Spain.

Money Matters

Spain's official currency is the Euro (€). It's recommended to have some cash for small purchases, although credit cards are widely accepted.

Local Climate

Azahar Coast enjoys a Mediterranean climate with hot, dry summers and mild, wet winters. Always take a look at the local forecast before you set off each day, and plan your journey accordingly.

Exploring the Valencia Region

Whether you're planning on exploring the city's vibrant culture or escaping to the tranquillity of the nearby Sierra Espadán Natural Park, Castellón is a great starting point for your trip.

Getting Around

Castellón is well connected by roads to major cities like Valencia, Alicante, and Barcelona. Be sure to note the difference between "Autovia", free highways, and "Autopista", toll roads. Spanish roads are generally well maintained, so your drive should be smooth and enjoyable.

Final Notes

Remember to respect local traffic rules, don't drink and drive, and always wear your seatbelt. Have a fantastic trip!
