Directions from Murcia (San Javier) Airport to our house in Bolnuevo

 

Our address is:-

Calle Alisio No 3, Marina De Bolnuevo

30877 Mazarron, Murcia,  Espana

 

  

There are basically three ways to get to Bolnuevo:-

 

 

Option 1 Motorway (toll) around Cartagena to Bolnuevo ( only takes around 40 minutes)

After leaving the airport, go straight on at the first roundabout. The next two roundabouts are very close together, taking you on to the AP7 Motorway towards Cartagena. To do this go straight on at the first roundabout and pass under the motorway, at the next roundabout take the slip road up onto the AP7 motorway sign posted Cartagena.

This junction you join at is Junction 784. (Note: Junctions are numbered by their position along the motorway. You want to leave the motorway at Junction 800 and as you have just joined at junction 784 there are 16 kilometres to go.]

Turn off at junction 800, you want the AP-7 towards Vera and Murcia.
Do NOT go straight on to Cartagena. You should now be on the AP7 motorway.

At Junction 810 traffic for the A-30 to Murcia will leave the motorway – but you continue along the AP-7 motorway towards Vera. At Junction 815 you take the slip road to the right, signposted AP-7 to Vera. Immediately after this take a toll ticket from the machine. You pay about 5 Euro when you leave the motorway at Mazarron.

[Note: An Autopista is a motorway with tolls and is designated by an AP prefix. An Autovia is a motorway without tolls and is designated with just an A prefix. So the A-7 and the AP-7 are completely different roads. Beware!]

After 30 km, at Junction 845, you leave the motorway – signposted Mazarron and Puerto de Mazarron. At the toll booth give them the ticket you got when you joined the toll section and pay the toll (At present this is about €5 but don’t worry if you have not yet got any Euros – you can pay with a UK credit or debit card.).

At the next roundabout (about 100m or so) you will pass under the Mazarron by-pass.
Take the third exit up the slip road up onto the by-pass – signposted Puerto de Mazarron.

After 1 km, you will come to the end of the bye-pass and a big roundabout, turn left here. The next roundabout is the one with an old caterpillar tractor in the middle. Take the first exit, signposted Bolnuevo.

The next roundabout, (about 5Km) with the Sails sculpture in the middle, is at the start of Bolnuevo village, take the first exit to Bolnuevo. After 20 metres, turn sharp right into the Marina de Bolnuevo development. After another 15 metres, turn left, and follow the road round into Calle Alisio – our house is number 3 – you made it!!

Option 2 To

Cartagena then E22 to Bolnuevo

 

 

When leaving the airport car park, follow the signs all the way to Cartagena, it is a dual carriage way (A37 or AP7) as far as Cartagena. Stay on this motorway until the very end, (at Cartagena). When the motorway ends, you will see Carrefour on the right hand side. 

 

Follow this straight road through the city until you come to a large island, and take the first exit, immediately past the Plaza de Espana parking.

 

After the 5th set of traffic lights, (including the pedestrian crossings), you will come to an island with a large shield monument in the centre and a Video drug store on the opposite side. Turn left here, (second exit), signpost Mazarron   ………..

 

Carry on this dual carriage way, straight over the first island towards Mazarron, over the traffic lights and up to the second roundabout, Turn right here on to the E22, signpost Mazarron.  This road takes you through a little village called Las Canteras and up over the mountains, (not that high!).

 

Once over the mountains, carry on the same road until you come to a T junction.  Turn left, signpost Mazarron. After about 2km you will come to a large island with a boat in the centre. Take the first exit, towards Mazarron, (this is the bypass around Puerto de Mazarron). 

 

After about 1km, turn left, at the next roundabout, (with two galleon ships in the middle), towards Puerto de Mazarron and go down into the town.  Stay on this road through the town as it follows the coast line to Bolnuevo about 4km away.  Just before you get to Bolnuevo you will come to a gradual bridge over a causeway.  Come down to the island, (it has a metal sculpture of sails on it), and take the 2nd exit to Bolnuevo town.

 

After 20 metres turn sharp right into the Marina de Bolnuevo development.  After another 15 metres, turn left and follow the road round into Calle Alisio – our house is number 3 – you made it!!
