2025 Europe Triathlon Sprint and Relay Championships Melilla

The main venue will be located at Plaza de las Culturas, heart of the city in Melilla, sorounded by restaurants, shops, and full of activity
Next to it, and at Playa de los Galápagos, the swim course will take place, in an icoinc beach with the ancient wall around it
Bike and run course will be mostly flat, but technical; but the run course will have a hill just 500 meters before the finish running through part of the anciente wall
Closest Airport
Melilla (MEL), with direct flights from the most important cities in Spain, but specially Madrid and Malaga
There is an option travelling to Nador in Morrocco, with a driving distance of 30 minutes, but is important to take into consideration to cross the border and potential delays
Transport
By plane
As it is explained Melilla (ESP) and Nador (MOR), only taking into consideration the time at the border, that is unexpected
Arriving at Melilla airport: Transfers are not needed, as the easiest, faster and cheaper is to take a taxi to the specific hotel (less than 10 €)
Arriving at Nador airport: Transfers will be organized by Alborannia Travel Agency, with experience to do transfers from Morrocco to Melilla. For quotation and information contact Oscar González, email oscar.gonzalez@alborannia.es
By boat
There is an alternative, that can work that is to travel to Málaga by plane, and then in Málaga rent a van and transfer bikes and/or persons to Melilla
There are two companies operating from Málaga to Melilla; Balearia and Transmediterranea
