With some terrific road trip options available in the surrounding area, renting a car makes sense. Without one, it’d be much more difficult to enjoy everything that Lorca, 25 miles away, has to offer. Lorca Castle, Plaza de Toros and Museo de Bordados del Paso Azul alone justify the drive. Don’t skip Murcia either! Just 35 miles away, Terra Natura, Murcia Cathedral and Real Casino Murcia are non-negotiable stops here.
