Alicante Airport to Calpe taxi, 78 km under the Peñón
Seventy eight kilometres and about an hour, with the Peñón de Ifach ahead for the last stretch. Fixed at €125 for the whole car, urbanisations included.
78 km, 62 minutes, one fixed price
Calpe is an hour up the AP-7 from the airport, and the rock at the end of it is how you know you have arrived. It is a comfortable run, but it is also far enough that the last leg is worth settling before you fly rather than at the taxi rank.
The €125 is for the vehicle, one way, up to four passengers with luggage. Agreed when you book, with no meter and nothing added on arrival.
Calpe spreads a long way: the old town, the marina, the two beaches either side of the Peñón, and a run of urbanisations climbing the hillside. Maryvilla, Empedrola, Gran Sol or the seafront, the price does not change.

Four ways to cover the same 78 km
An hour of motorway with luggage, arriving in a town that spreads over several kilometres of hillside. It is the kind of leg where improvising gets expensive.
| Option | Cost | After the flight | Journey |
|---|---|---|---|
| Costanova private transfer | Fixed at €125 | Waiting at arrivals | 62 min, door to door |
| Taxi from the rank | Metered the whole way | However long the queue is | Roughly an hour |
| Bus and connection | Cheap, but in stages | Fixed departures | Most of an afternoon |

Three steps to Calpe
Tell us the address
Old town, marina or urbanisation. It changes the route, not the price.
Your name at arrivals
The driver is inside the terminal with a sign, not waiting in a car park.
An hour up the AP-7
One run to the door, with the Penon in front of you at the end.
What Calpe is like when you get there
The Peñón is the landmark
The Natural Park rock sits between the two beaches. Most addresses in Calpe are described by which side of it they are on, and your driver will know.
The urbanisations cost the same
Calpe climbs a long way inland. Up at Maryvilla or down by the marina, it is the same €125, which is rarely true of a metered fare.
The salt flats in the middle of town
Las Salinas sits behind the beach with flamingos on it most of the year, five minutes from where most people stay.
The last twenty minutes
The motorway does most of the work, and then the road drops towards the coast and the Penon fills the windscreen. Drivers who do this run weekly know which of the two exits suits the north beach and which suits the old town, and it saves a loop through the middle of town.
This route carries a lot of repeat visitors and second home owners, which is why the common request here is not the centre at all but a specific urbanisation halfway up a hill.
Common questions about this route
A fixed €125 one way for the vehicle, up to four passengers. The same price applies from Alicante train station.
About 62 minutes for 78 km, almost all of it on the AP-7 motorway.
Yes, and at the same price. Maryvilla, Empedrola, Gran Sol, the marina or the old town are all €125.
Public transport is cheaper but needs connections and does not run to your door, so with luggage it turns an hour into most of an afternoon.
Yes. Tell us the departure time and we set the pickup with room for the drive and check in.
