What are the departure and arrival stations for buses from Granada to Málaga?

Departure bus station: All Alsa buses to Málaga begin their journey at Granada's Estación de Autobuses. The bus station can be found on the Avenida de Juan Pablo II, which is about a mile northwest of the Old Town. From the city center, travelers can take the SN1 or SN2 buses - or take a 10-15 minute taxi journey.

Arrival bus stations: Málaga has two arrival points. Many people will want to travel to the Aeropuerto, and Alsa buses run straight to the departure terminals. But beware: the airport is 5 miles outside town. People who want to travel into Málaga itself should take coaches to the Estación de Autobuses de Málaga (which are faster). The bus station is southwest of the city center and west of the port. However, it's only a 12 minute walk from the city's Old Town, so travelers can easily stroll into the center. It's also next door to Maria Zambrano train station, allowing fast transfers to intercity rail services.
