Parking Almuñecar during Easter Week 2022


During this Easter week 2022 the blue zone of the promenades in Almuñecar and La Herradura will not be available.


Parking in Almuñecar



The new contract for the awarding of the regulated car park to the company IberPark has come into force and as it is a new company it was planned to change the ticket machines for parking.


Due to the stress in the supply chain and the lorry strike which has also affected our normal development, it has not yet been possible to receive the new terminals and for this reason you will be exempt from paying the fee during this week until they are operational.

The areas affected by this change are the main seafront roads of the municipality, both in Almuñécar and La Herradura.


However, in the town centre the concession of the current company is still in force, so check the street where you park and the temporary cuts due to processional parades.


It is usual that on the weekend before the Easter festivities the regulated parking comes into operation, especially due to the large influx of tourists that the town receives.
