Jerez – Sanlúcar Bus

Sanlúcar de Barrameda has no train station. The nearest, according to Sanlúcar Tourism, is Jerez de la Frontera, about 25 km away, on the Renfe Seville–Cádiz line, which also carries long-distance trains from Madrid. The natural link is to take the train to Jerez and continue by bus to Sanlúcar.

The lines between Jerez and Sanlúcar

The service is run by Empresa Monforte (Monbus) with several lines of the Bay of Cádiz Transport Consortium, which leave from Jerez bus station and arrive at Sanlúcar bus station, on Avenida de la Constitución (telephone 956 38 50 60). There is no single line with an hourly timetable, but several that share out the day:

• M-970, direct: about 40 minutes. Monday to Friday on working days, it leaves Jerez at 12:30 and 16:15.
• M-971, via Jerez hospital: about 50 minutes, with stops at the University Hospital, Plaza de las Marinas and Plaza del Caballo. Monday to Friday, it leaves Jerez at 11:00 and 13:00.
• M-963 and M-964: continue to Chipiona. Several services run every day, such as those leaving Jerez at 14:00, 17:00, 18:00 and 22:00. They do not take passengers only between Sanlúcar and Chipiona.
• M-561: links Jerez with Sanlúcar, Chipiona and Costa Ballena.

These timetables apply from 10 September 2026 and some services run only on school days. Before travelling, use the origin-and-destination search on the Consortium's website (siu.cmtbc.es) or the Transporte Andalucía app, which combine all the lines for the day you choose.

Other bus connections

From the same station, Damas links Sanlúcar with Chipiona, Costa Ballena and Rota, with El Puerto de Santa María, Puerto Real, Cádiz and San Fernando, and with Seville, via Trebujena, Lebrija, Las Cabezas de San Juan, Los Palacios and Dos Hermanas. To arrive from Seville without changing transport, that direct line is the simplest option.

Plane, car and taxi

Jerez airport is about 25–35 km away, according to the municipal website's section, and Seville's about 115–120 km. By car, Jerez is about 25 km along the A-480 and Chipiona 10 km. In Sanlúcar, Radio Taxi answers on 956 360 004 and 956 360 005, with a rank at the bus station.

On arrival

From the bus station you can walk to the centre. The first thing, if it is your first visit, is to call in at the tourist office on Calzada Duquesa Isabel. Then, the Palace of the Dukes of Medina Sidonia and Santiago Castle in the upper quarter, wine cellars such as Barbadillo and, to finish, the walk along Bajo de Guía facing Doñana. Check the last bus back carefully: at weekends there are far fewer services.
