Driving Tips for Alicante

Help make your trip hassle-free with these tips for driving your car rental in Alicante:

  • Parking: Garages are the best choice for parking in the city center. For fair prices in a covered garage near Plaza de los Luceros, choose Parking Alfonso El Sabio SL or Parking Poeta Quintana | iPark.
  • Speed Limits: In the city, the speed limit is usually 50 km/hr (30 mph), but drops to 25 km/h (15 mph) in residential areas. However, expect speed limits of 70-100 km/hr (43-62 mph) outside the city limits and up to 120 km/hr (75 mph) on the highways.
  • One-Way Roads: The city center has a one-way road system that’s easy to navigate with GPS. Input your destination before starting your journey to avoid unnecessary detours.
  • Mountain Driving: If you head slightly outside the city, you’ll encounter mountain roads with curves and steep inclines. Make sure to decrease your speed before entering a turn and watch for rocks, mud, or other debris in the road.
