How difficult is it to get a taxi in Mojacar Playa after the bus services finish at night? Also rough cost of taxi from Pueblo Indalo to Marina de la Torre?

If you're one of the Brit run bars the guy behind the counter is your most important person regarding sourcing a taxi. Ask him to arrange a taxi and he will.

Of course, you can contact one of the main taxi people who'll promise you that he'll collect you at a specific time. If he fulfils his promise, that'll be a first.

we got a taxi after about an hour long wait, over a week ago from Bar One on the playa to Mojacar Playa (via the Continental Hotel) It cost an outrageous €30. The taxi guy said he was an Uber taxi. The bar owner was as helpful as he could have been , and made several phone calls to Taxi Mojacar Central toget us a taxi.

Yes, Maggie, That has been my experience for years. The taxi service in Mojacar Playa is generally dreadful on several fronts. We know there are exceptions, but let's call a spade a spade and admit that huge improvements are needed.
