Confirm current public transport fares with the operator. Current transfer prices, availability and terms are shown in the live booking flow. ## Main Guide ### Quick answer La Palma Airport (SPC) is on the island of La Palma. The operator's site, Aena, lists three ways to reach the airport: a bus line between the airport and several towns, taxis from a marked stop with published tariffs, and car rental. A pre-booked private transfer is the fourth option and goes to your address. Our route estimates give a sense of the island: Santa Cruz de La Palma about 13 km and 18 minutes, Fuencaliente about 21 km and 26 minutes, Los Llanos de Aridane about 39 km and 47 minutes, Tazacorte about 39 km and 52 minutes, and Garafia about 67 km and 88 minutes. Bus line 500 covers Santa Cruz de La Palma and Los Cancajos. For villages off that line, especially on the west and north of the island, a taxi or pre-booked transfer saves a lot of waiting. ### What actually happens after landing After landing you go through baggage reclaim and out to the arrivals area. Aena's taxi page tells passengers to take a taxi only from the marked stop at the passenger terminal and to avoid drivers who offer their services elsewhere. It also advises asking for the receipt for any complaint. Aena lists several car rental companies for the airport. Check your rental company's own instructions for where to collect the car. Check entry requirements for your nationality with your airline or government before you fly. If your flight is delayed, tell your transfer provider and check the booking confirmation for how delays are handled. ### Transport options explained honestly **Bus:** Aena lists line 500, Santa Cruz de La Palma, Los Cancajos and the airport. Hours listed: Monday to Saturday on working days from 7:15 to 22:45, and Sundays and public holidays from 7:45 to 22:45. Information numbers: 922 411 924 and 922 414 441. Ask for the timetable that fits your landing time. **Taxi:** Take it from the marked stop. Aena publishes the tariffs (see the pricing section). The fare is metered, so the total depends on the route. **Pre-booked private transfer:** The price is shown when you request a quote on this page and confirmed at booking. If meet-and-greet is included in your booking, the driver meets you as stated in your booking confirmation. This suits families, groups and villages off line 500. **Rental car:** Aena lists several rental companies at the airport. **Ride-hailing apps:** Availability was not verified, so do not rely on one as your only plan. ### Realistic pricing expectations Aena publishes the taxi tariffs in force according to the Canary Islands official bulletin no. 59 of 24 March 2023. Tariff 1, working days from 6:00 to 22:00: minimum fare 3.85 EUR, 1.35 EUR per km, waiting time 18.50 EUR per hour, radio taxi supplement 0.60 EUR, supplement for a journey starting or ending at an airport or port 2.10 EUR. Tariff 2, nights from 22:00 to 6:00, Sundays and public holidays: minimum fare 4.25 EUR, 1.55 EUR per km, with the same waiting and supplement amounts. A separate Christmas tariff applies on 24 and 31 December and 5 January from 22:00 to midnight. Tariffs can change, so ask the driver to confirm the rate. The bus fare is not on the Aena page; ask the operator. For a pre-booked transfer, the price appears when you request a quote on this page. ### Late night arrivals Aena's bus page lists line 500 hours of 7:15 to 22:45 on working days Monday to Saturday and 7:45 to 22:45 on Sundays and holidays. We did not find the airport's own opening hours, so check your flight status with your airline. If you land close to the end of those hours, do not rely on the bus. Aena's tariff 2 applies to taxis from 22:00 to 6:00, on Sundays and public holidays. Take the taxi from the marked stop and ask for the receipt. A pre-booked transfer is the plan that does not depend on a timetable. Give your flight number and address when you book. ### Families and luggage The Spanish traffic authority, DGT, states that child restraint systems are required for minors 135 cm or shorter. It states that in taxis they are required on motorways and dual carriageways but not in urban traffic, and that children must always travel in the rear seats. The island roads can be long, so ask your transfer provider to arrange a child seat when you book and give the child's age and weight. Do not assume that a taxi at the stop has one. With strollers and several bags, a taxi or pre-booked transfer to the door is usually easier than the bus with a further walk. ### Where you meet the driver For a pre-booked transfer, the meeting point and driver details are in your booking confirmation. If meet-and-greet is included in your booking, follow the instructions there. For a taxi, use the marked stop at the passenger terminal. For the bus, check the stop location in the timetable information from the operator on 922 411 924 or 922 414 441. If you cannot find your driver, contact the provider using the details in the confirmation. ### Decision helper **Check line 500 if:** you travel light, you are going to Santa Cruz de La Palma or Los Cancajos, and the timetable fits your landing time. **Take a taxi if:** you want to go straight to your address and are happy with a metered fare under the published tariff. **Book a private transfer if:** you travel with children, a group or luggage, your village is off line 500, or you land late and want the arrangement confirmed before you fly. **Hire a car if:** you plan to explore the island yourself. ## Summary La Palma has a small road network and long drives to the west and north. Decide before you fly whether line 500 fits your destination or whether you need a door-to-door ride. ## Sources (checked 2026-10-27) - Airport pages for getting there: bus, taxi and car (Aena): https://www.aena.es/es/la-palma.html - Taxi stop, taxi tariffs in force per the Canary Islands official bulletin no. 59 of 24 March 2023, taxi information phone numbers (Aena): https://www.aena.es/es/la-palma/como-llegar/taxi.html - Bus line 500 Santa Cruz de La Palma - Los Cancajos - Airport, hours, information phone numbers (Aena): https://www.aena.es/es/la-palma/como-llegar/autobus.html - Car rental companies listed for the airport (Aena): https://www.aena.es/es/la-palma/servicios-del-aeropuerto/alquiler-vehiculos.html - Child restraint systems in Spain: required for children 135 cm or less; taxis on motorways and dual carriageways; rear seats (Spanish traffic authority DGT): https://www.dgt.es/comunicacion/noticias/20260224-sillitas-a-z/ - Approximate road distances and driving times to the areas listed (route estimates, not measured live): AirportTransferPortal route database, checked 2026-10-27 ## Frequently Asked Questions **Q: How far is La Palma Airport from Santa Cruz de La Palma?** Our route database estimates about 13 km and about 18 minutes by road. **Q: How far is the airport from Los Llanos de Aridane?** Our route database estimates about 39 km and about 47 minutes by road. **Q: How far is the airport from Tazacorte?** Our route database estimates about 39 km and about 52 minutes by road. **Q: How far is the airport from Fuencaliente?** Our route database estimates about 21 km and about 26 minutes by road. **Q: Is there a bus from La Palma Airport?** Aena lists line 500, Santa Cruz de La Palma, Los Cancajos and the airport, with hours of 7:15 to 22:45 on working days Monday to Saturday and 7:45 to 22:45 on Sundays and holidays.

A taxi from the marked stop or a confirmed pre-booked transfer is the calmer choice. ## Sources (checked 2026-10-27) - Airport pages for getting there: bus, taxi and car (Aena): https://www.aena.es/es/la-palma.html - Taxi stop, taxi tariffs in force per the Canary Islands official bulletin no. 59 of 24 March 2023, taxi information phone numbers (Aena): https://www.aena.es/es/la-palma/como-llegar/taxi.html - Bus line 500 Santa Cruz de La Palma - Los Cancajos - Airport, hours, information phone numbers (Aena): https://www.aena.es/es/la-palma/como-llegar/autobus.html - Car rental companies listed for the airport (Aena): https://www.aena.es/es/la-palma/servicios-del-aeropuerto/alquiler-vehiculos.html - Child restraint systems in Spain: required for children 135 cm or less; taxis on motorways and dual carriageways; rear seats (Spanish traffic authority DGT): https://www.dgt.es/comunicacion/noticias/20260224-sillitas-a-z/ - Approximate road distances and driving times to the areas listed (route estimates, not measured live): AirportTransferPortal route database, checked 2026-10-27 ## La Palma Airport: Bus, Taxi or Pre-Booked Transfer **URL:** https://www.airporttransferportal.com/airport-guides/spc/taxi-vs-transfer La Palma Airport has a bus line, taxis from a marked stop and rental cars. Many visitors also pre-book a private transfer. Which one fits depends on where you are going and what you carry. ## When the bus makes sense Aena lists line 500, Santa Cruz de La Palma, Los Cancajos and the airport, with hours of 7:15 to 22:45 on working days Monday to Saturday and 7:45 to 22:45 on Sundays and public holidays. It may suit a light-luggage traveller going to those places. Call 922 411 924 or 922 414 441 for the timetable. The fare is not on the Aena page. ## When a taxi is the right call Take the taxi from the marked stop at the passenger terminal and ask for a receipt. The fare is metered under tariffs that Aena publishes: on working days from 6:00 to 22:00, a minimum fare of 3.85 EUR, 1.35 EUR per km and a 2.10 EUR airport supplement. The total depends on the route, and the tariffs are those in force under the 2023 Canary Islands bulletin cited by Aena. ## When a pre-booked transfer makes sense **Villages off the bus line:** the west and north of the island are far from line 500, and a transfer goes to the door. **Groups and children:** a larger vehicle can be arranged in advance, and a child seat can be requested with the child's age and weight. **Late arrivals:** the arrangement is confirmed before you fly. Check the booking confirmation for how delays are handled. **Price:** it is shown when you request a quote and confirmed at booking. ## Meeting your driver If meet-and-greet is included in your booking, the driver meets you as stated in the booking confirmation. If not, the confirmation says where to meet. ## The bottom line For Santa Cruz de La Palma or Los Cancajos with light luggage, check line 500. For anywhere else, or with children and bags, a taxi or a pre-booked transfer saves the last leg. ## Sources (checked 2026-10-27) - Airport pages for getting there: bus, taxi and car (Aena): https://www.aena.es/es/la-palma.html - Taxi stop, taxi tariffs in force per the Canary Islands official bulletin no. 59 of 24 March 2023, taxi information phone numbers (Aena): https://www.aena.es/es/la-palma/como-llegar/taxi.html - Bus line 500 Santa Cruz de La Palma - Los Cancajos - Airport, hours, information phone numbers (Aena): https://www.aena.es/es/la-palma/como-llegar/autobus.html - Car rental companies listed for the airport (Aena): https://www.aena.es/es/la-palma/servicios-del-aeropuerto/alquiler-vehiculos.html - Child restraint systems in Spain: required for children 135 cm or less; taxis on motorways and dual carriageways; rear seats (Spanish traffic authority DGT): https://www.dgt.es/comunicacion/noticias/20260224-sillitas-a-z/ - Approximate road distances and driving times to the areas listed (route estimates, not measured live): AirportTransferPortal route database, checked 2026-10-27 ## La Palma Airport with Children and Luggage **URL:** https://www.airporttransferportal.com/airport-guides/spc/family-and-kids Plan for a long arrival day. Our route estimates put Santa Cruz de La Palma at about 18 minutes, Los Llanos de Aridane at about 47 minutes, and Garafia at about 88 minutes by road. ## Child seat rules in Spain The Spanish traffic authority, DGT, states that child restraint systems are required for minors 135 cm or shorter. For taxis, it states that they are required on motorways and dual carriageways but not in urban traffic, and that children must always travel in the rear seats. Ask your provider what is arranged, and do not assume that a taxi at the stop has a seat. ## Getting to the accommodation with children **Bus:** Aena lists line 500, Santa Cruz de La Palma, Los Cancajos and the airport, with hours of 7:15 to 22:45 on working days Monday to Saturday and 7:45 to 22:45 on Sundays and holidays. Call 922 411 924 or 922 414 441 to ask about luggage and children, which the Aena page does not list. **Taxi:** take it from the marked stop. The fare is metered under the tariffs Aena publishes, so the total depends on the route. **Pre-booked transfer:** request a child seat when booking and give your child's age and weight. A larger vehicle can be requested for strollers and bags. Check your booking confirmation for the meeting point. ## Practical tips Keep water, snacks and children's essentials in your hand luggage. Keep your accommodation address saved on your phone. Many villages are 40 to 90 minutes away by road, so feed and rest the children before the drive if you can. ## The bottom line With strollers, several bags and tired children, a door-to-door ride usually saves the most effort, especially to villages off line 500. ## Sources (checked 2026-10-27) - Airport pages for getting there: bus, taxi and car (Aena): https://www.aena.es/es/la-palma.html - Taxi stop, taxi tariffs in force per the Canary Islands official bulletin no. 59 of 24 March 2023, taxi information phone numbers (Aena): https://www.aena.es/es/la-palma/como-llegar/taxi.html - Bus line 500 Santa Cruz de La Palma - Los Cancajos - Airport, hours, information phone numbers (Aena): https://www.aena.es/es/la-palma/como-llegar/autobus.html - Car rental companies listed for the airport (Aena): https://www.aena.es/es/la-palma/servicios-del-aeropuerto/alquiler-vehiculos.html - Child restraint systems in Spain: required for children 135 cm or less; taxis on motorways and dual carriageways; rear seats (Spanish traffic authority DGT): https://www.dgt.es/comunicacion/noticias/20260224-sillitas-a-z/ - Approximate road distances and driving times to the areas listed (route estimates, not measured live): AirportTransferPortal route database, checked 2026-10-27 ## Cost of Getting from La Palma Airport to Santa Cruz and Beyond **URL:** https://www.airporttransferportal.com/airport-guides/spc/cost-to-city This page gives the official taxi tariffs and what to check for the other options.
