Travel and transport agencies Santa Cruz De Graciosa

Graciosa airport (or rather aerodrome!) is very small, but large enough to accommodate the regular flights of the local Azorean airline SATA. Don't be frightened when you see the runway from the window - the pilots are used to it. The arrivals and departures hall does house a couple of car rental stands. The airport is just 2 km from the island's main town, Santa Cruz de Graciosa. So you're within easy reach of all amenities, and on the day of departure, you'll be at the airfield in no time!

Very good company on the island of Graciosa. The prices are competitive. There are various rental options available to you: limited mileage or unlimited mileage. Prices are decreasing according to the duration of your rental. The agency also offers bike rental, a fun way to discover Graciosa in a different and more relaxed way. Finally, you can discover the island by motorcycle, scooter or motorcycle.

From France, SATA Azores Airlines only flies to Ponta Delgada (often via Lisbon or Porto): you'll then need to take another inter-island flight to Graciosa. This route is operated several times a week, most of the time with a stopover; direct flights are few and far between. Please note that flights can be disrupted by the sometimes capricious weather conditions in the Azores. You won't always be sure of taking off!

As a service-oriented company, your welcome will be personalized and of the highest quality. Their fleet of vehicles is modern and in excellent condition (available from category A to category I). The agency is located in downtown Santa Cruz da Graciosa and at the airport. Prices are reasonable. However, please remember to add the cost of the deposit and insurance, and note that mileage is limited. Although the island is small, it's worth bearing this in mind.

From June to September, Atlanticoline offers just one itinerary, with a stop in Graciosa. The white line links the small island directly to its neighbors São Jorge (Velas, in 3 hours) and Terceira (Praia da Vitória, in 4 hours). The other islands of the central group can also be reached via Atlanticoline, but one - or even more - connections are unavoidable. Ferries to and from Graciosa don't run the rest of the year, so air travel is the only option for getting to other islands.

Wi-Fi is free on Santa Cruz central square around the tourist information kiosk. The 4 G/3 G works very well throughout the island.
