AP7 onto A7 Murcia, It's quick, tollfree , but just take care with the HGV's they can be a little maverick at times.

You could go to Catral / San isidro and catch a train. No problems parking that way and train fares very reasonable,

Jencco, that's a great idea, I've not used the train service yet, but will definitely being doing that in the future. I think parking is free at the station and the trains run fairly regularly? Another little adventure in the making. And once we've done Murcia, we can go the other way to Alicante.

Here's a link to the timetable for the Murcia-Alicante line. Plenty of trains each day!
