Almería has an international airport, which is 10 minutes from the conference site (approx. 15 Euros in taxi). However, other airports include Malaga (2.5 hours by bus or car), Granada (1.5-2 hours by bus or car), or Valencia (4 or 5 hours by car). Madrid is 6 hours by car/7 hours by train and Barcelona is 8 hours by car, thus connecting flights to Almería are most likely the best option. Rental cars are also an option, particularly if they can be shared amongst delegates. The Almería airport has a drop off/pickup for rental cars.
