A Coruña

A Coruña is located in Galicia, Spain. Currently, the only official form of the name is the Galician one, A Coruña. Nonetheless, the Spanish form La Coruña is still widespread.

The A Coruña airport (Alvedro) is located in the Culleredo municipal limits, 8 km from A Coruña. It has national and international connections and it is operated by Iberia, Spanair, EasyJet, CLickAir, and Portugalia. There are a couple of international connections (to London Heathrow and to Lisbon) and frequent national connections (mainly to Madrid, several flights a day). You can get to the airport by local bus or taxi. The (larger) airport of Santiago de Compostela (Labacolla) is an alternative, 50 Km. from A Coruña.

If you want to go along the seafront promenade (paseo marítimo) you can use the tram for 2€, which will carry you from the football stadium (Riazor) to the other side of the city, near the town hall. Taxis are white, with a green light on the top showing they are free. A ride from the centre within the city might cost you around 5-7€, depending on the traffic.
