Means of transport Spain

After three years of waiting, eighteen months of work and a budget of over €2.2 million, the new bus station finally opened in November 2019. The new terminal has twenty bays and is open from 5.30am to 11.30pm. With ticket sales point, information point, toilets. It hosts the urban lines of Puerto de la Cruz as well as various lines to the rest of the island of Tenerife. N° 102 for the North airport "Los Rodeos"; N° 343 for Los Cristianos (convenient for boats or Reina Sofia airport, in the south).

The motorboats María del Pino, Safari III, and La Graciosa of the Romero company run three to five times a day from the port of Orzola, at the northern tip of Lanzarote, to La Graciosa, in 20 minutes. The ride is quite pleasant, but sometimes a bit bumpy. Those who are prone to seasickness should take precautions beforehand... or be patient. In addition, she also organizes day trips on a catamaran, such as a five-hour excursion to discover the ocean floor. A beautiful discovery.

Moreover, the view from above is better with a morning light. Please inquire beforehand, if there is a lot of wind the cable car is closed. Precautions to take: beware of mountain sickness for the most sensitive as you will be arriving on the highest peak in Spain. The cable car does not operate as a precaution in high winds.

You will mainly use the green line (L3) to visit the city: it serves the Ramblas, the Raval, the Plaça Catalunya, the Passeig de Gràcia... The yellow line (L4) leads to the beaches and the Born district!

You board wagons from the beginning of the 20th century (the line has been in service since 1912!) which run down a narrow track. The Sòller train has retained the charm of its original materials. It will take you through beautiful landscapes inaccessible by road, through the Serra de Tramuntana and the Alfàbia mountain range, from Palma to Sóller. Along the way, you will pass through thirteen tunnels (from 30 metres to 3 km long), over bridges, including the "dels cinc-ponts" viaduct with its 8-metre-high arches, and along impressive curves.

The bus station is located at the eastern exit of the city, on the via Medular, quite far from the city centre. This is where the buses for Orzola and the north of the island leave from. Those serving the airport, Puerto del Carmen, Costa Teguise and the south of the island leave from Avenida Fred Olsen, on the seafront and not far from the city centre (interchange-intercambiador). The network is efficient and connects the main tourist destinations to each other and to Arrecife.

It is now the second metro in the Andalusian region after Seville, and the seventh in Spain. Initially scheduled for 2017, completion of the entire project (14.8 km and 23 stations) has been postponed several times. As a result, traffic jams persist.

There is another link between Mataró and Portbou, with a stop in Blanes and Figueres. If you are coming from Barcelona, this is the station that takes you most to the city centre.

Inter-island maritime transport, Iberian peninsula and Moroccan coast. Not much longer than Fred Olsen to reach Las Palmas from Tenerife and you avoid the Agaete-Las Palmas journey. If the new model no longer has a mini-terrace, to the great displeasure of users who regret it, the equipment remains correct: cafeterias, bars, television room. A mini-cruise for a low price that allows a nice overview of the different islands. The arrival is at Muelle Mandela, a little off-centre. But with taxis waiting a few meters from the boat.

10 minutes from the seafront.
