Transportation

Getting to Castellon is quite easy! If you fly into Madrid, Barcelona or Valencia you will be able to train in on a single train line without switching trains.  

Madrid: ~2 hours 

Barcelona: ~2.5 hours

Valencia: ~1 hour

There is a small airport on the outskirts of the city, but it is a bit more expensive and there aren't as many options for flights if you are outside of the EU!

Mercat Central

A stunning, huge building of fresh fruits, cheeses, meats and so much more amazing food that the locals grab in the morning to make for their meals during the day. This is a great way to shop cheap and fresh!

The beaches in Castellon are amazing! You can walk or jog along a path by the water and you will find cafe's restaurants and can enjoy a dip in the water! The waves are calm and the sand is amazing! A personal favorite activity of mine to do on the weekend.
