Tips for parking in Seville

Tips for parking in Seville

It is essential to know if you are going to move the car during your stay in Seville or not. If not, the bet should be parking in more peripheral areas and then go to the central destination by taxi or urban transport.

Consider the option of booking parking online. You can discover interesting car parks and get discounted rates, especially for long stays.

Try to avoid going into the historical centre at all costs, especially for large cars. On certain dates, it can be hellish. Easter is out of the question.

There are very central parking lots that are narrow and uncomfortable for large cars. Get informed before.

Tips for parking in Seville · Where to park in Seville

Parking in the centre of Seville is known to be difficult. The historic centre is a maze of narrow streets, with a lot of pressure from residents, and many restrictions on access, parking or even just stopping. Tourists should avoid this at all costs, as even GPSs are unreliable. Changes in directions, new rules of passage, or walkers are the order of the day.

Added to this is the traffic policy followed by the city council, which tends to favour public transport services to the detriment of private vehicles, which are almost considered to be foreign objects. We will offer in this section some tips for parking in Seville and a great online booking service for parking in the main points of interest for tourists in Seville.

Very central guarded car parks in Seville

In this section, we will only highlight those with the largest number of places and those located in the historical centre or its surroundings:

tips for parking in Seville

Parking around the center of Seville, rounds.

Good option if we come from the south of Cadiz, entering the city by the Paseo de la Palmera and Delicias.

Parking near the center of Seville

Good option if we enter Seville from Huelva or Merida. Not very wide.

Car parks outside the centre of Seville but well connected

This is the closest car park for travellers coming from Córdoba-Madrid on the N-IV or from Málaga on the A-92.

An alternative, although further away, is to leave the vehicle in the car parks of the nearby Santa Justa railway station.

There is an esplanade on Avenida del Greco, the site of the Cruzcampo and Abengoa factories, between Nervión and the San Pablo industrial estate. Connection for the centre with bus line 21.

Esplanade next to the San Pablo sports pavilion: Thessalonica and Jerusalem streets, connection to the centre with bus line 20.

Zone of the Isla de la Cartuja

This area is very saturated in the mornings on weekdays and in the afternoon in the area of the Torre Sevilla Shopping Centre, where there are 3 hours of free parking.

There are some places in the area near the Cartuja footbridge, very close to the historical centre.

The widest area, Avenida de Carlos III and Charco de la Pava, is next to the outer arm of the river and has many places. Connection with Barqueta-Alameda, Macarena, and Puerta Osario by line C-1 and line C-2 brings you to Triana.

Easy access from the Huelva-Merida road: you can reach the centre on foot in 20 minutes or by bus No. 6.

Further away, the area of Isla Mágica, on the way to Descubrimientos, is next to the Barqueta and Alamillo bridges. From the first, there is good access walking to the area of the Alameda and Macarena. From the second, take the C-1 bus, which brings us closer to the Macarena and Rondas.

Parkings at Triana Zone

The wide area located all along La Ronda de Tejares allows access to the park of Vega de Triana, which is a 20-minute walk from the center or accessible by bus No. 43.

Zone of the neighborhood of Los Remedios.

A good area is Juan Sebastian ElCano Street and areas near the Remedios Bridge. Here, you’ll find ORA regulated parking and options along Adolfo Suarez Avenue. The center can be reached on foot in 15 minutes or by bus 41 from the street Virgen de Luján.

There are usually facilities in the Fair grounds, such as Flota de Indias, Ignacio Sánchez Mejías, Rafael Ortega, Remeros de Sevilla, and Antonio Bienvenida streets. It takes about 20 minutes to walk to the center. This is a rather lonely area.

In the vicinity of the Park de los Principes or in the car park at the Blas Infante metro station, there’s unlimited parking available. From there, take the metro (three stops) to Puerta Jerez or the bus No. 41 to Paseo de Colón and Calle San Pablo (centre).

These areas have easy access from the Aljarafe and the SE-30 ring road.

“Los Gorrillas”

The “gorrillas” are people who “help” to park on the streets of Seville and who, in most cases, belong to disadvantaged social strata. With rare exceptions, their attendance is nil and they usually show up after parking with the intention of asking for a tip. Do not expect someone to watch over your car.

We recommend giving them something (from 50 c. to 1 euro). It is a vicious circle that one day will have to end, but they are usually needy and kind people.

Parking at Easter and Feria in Seville

At Easter, it is difficult to drive in the center and its surroundings. The brotherhoods often cut off the main streets and avenues, and everything becomes very complicated.

During Easter Week, we recommend the aforementioned option of leaving the car in the Los Remedios neighbourhood, next to the Blas Infante metro station, behind the Parque de los Príncipes, or in Avenida de Carlos III, in Isla de la Cartuja.

The Fair offers the public a large car park located behind the venue in the area known as El Charco de la Pava, which can be accessed by the SE-30 ring road.

On these two dates, it may be necessary to book in advance.
