How safe is Granada?

So far i love this city because i feel very safe. I really did not expected to walk around past midnight alone just to get some cigarettes. I also leave not far from the center but still i feel safe. Its been around 4 months now since i have been here

I have now lived in Granada for the past two months, I moved here all by myself and felt very safe in the city. As a woman of 21 years old, you can safely walk home in the dark after partying. Of course you sometimes have men come up to you, but if you just say no they will not push too much! Definitely would recommend! It’s also a beauty city with allot of history

I am only in Granada for some months, but fir the moment I feel very save in the city. You can walk around as a girl even in the evening without problems. I live in the city centrt and at night you have a lot of people outside that parties, but people dont bother you.

It’s a pretty safe city but just be careful bc men sometimes yell and you and catcall women. Try to always be with someone when going out at night just in case :) However, i have not experienced any stealing problems and my friends haven’t either, in that sense it’s safe.

I have been less than a year, however when I've been out at night or any time during the day I've never seen anything worth worrying about. The public transport is efficient and people are friendly and respectful.

I only experienced one situation when I slightly felt uncomfortable in the dark on the streets in Granada. This was only one time for the 4months I’m here now. So overall I would consider the city safe.

Is Granada worth visiting?

Solo travel

I made a stop in Granada to go skiing in the village of Moncahil, which is also very beautiful. I was walking alone all day around Granada, I felt very safe and got to know quite a lot. It is a very beautiful city, with excellent viewpoints.

Solo travel

Met lots of friendly people (both Spaniards and fellow foreigners), the tapas culture was a treat and I wholeheartedly recommend you look into it when here! Even at nighttime as a young woman walking alone I felt quite safe!
