How to get to Puerto de Mogán: bus, ferry, car and taxi

How to get to Puerto de Mogán by bus

Intercity buses in the south are run by Global (locals call a bus a guagua), and several routes reach Puerto de Mogán. They all end at Estación Puerto de Mogán, a bus station with numbered bays at the entrance to the village.

Bus from the airport to Puerto de Mogán: route 91

This is the one you want if you are flying in. It links Las Palmas (Santa Catalina and San Telmo), the airport, Arguineguín, Puerto Rico, Amadores, Tauro and Playa del Cura with Puerto de Mogán, without going into Playa del Inglés. According to Global, it takes about 60 minutes from the airport, costs €6.80 and leaves every hour at 35 minutes past. At the airport, Aena places the bus stop on floor 1, Departures.

In Puerto de Mogán the 91 leaves from bay 1, roughly every hour between 7:15 and 22:15 on weekdays. One detail worth knowing: some services from Las Palmas, mostly mid-morning, terminate at Taurito, so check the destination board before you get on.

Route 1: the long way, along the whole coast

Route 1 also links Las Palmas and the airport with Puerto de Mogán, but it stops a lot along the way: Vecindario, the Playa del Inglés and Maspalomas area, Arguineguín and Puerto Rico. It is the most frequent: every 20 minutes in the middle of the day on weekdays and every half hour at weekends, with services through most of the night. Use it if the 91 does not fit your plans or you are heading somewhere in between. In Puerto de Mogán it leaves from bays 2 and 3.

Routes 32 and 33: from Maspalomas and Playa del Inglés to Puerto de Mogán

From the main resort area, two routes split the week between them:

• Route 32 (Monday to Friday): Playa del Inglés (Parque Tropical station), Faro de Maspalomas, Meloneras and Puerto de Mogán, without going through Puerto Rico. Every 20 or 30 minutes from 9:00 to 16:30, then at 17:00 and 18:00.
• Route 33 (Saturdays and public holidays): same starting point, but along the coast via Arguineguín, Puerto Rico and Amadores. Every half hour between 9:25 and 17:55.

Both cost €4.15 from Playa del Inglés or the Faro, and in Puerto de Mogán they leave from bays 6 and 7.

Routes 84 and 38: up to Mogán village and La Aldea

If you want to head inland afterwards, the 84 runs from bay 4 to Mogán village via El Hornillo roughly every hour, from 7:40 to 22:40 on weekdays (€1.40). The 38 carries on to La Aldea de San Nicolás via Veneguera, with few departures: Monday to Saturday at 7:00, 11:40, 16:00 and 19:40, and on Sundays and public holidays only at 7:40 and 18:40.

Fares and how to pay

You pay when you board, in cash or by contactless bank card (phones work too). Rechargeable travel cards give discounts, and Canary Island residents have their own passes, managed by the Gran Canaria transport authority.

Puerto Rico to Mogán ferry: timetable and prices

Arriving by sea has its rewards: the boat runs past cliffs you cannot see from the road and drops you right in the harbour, two minutes from the beach. Two companies run a scheduled service between Arguineguín, Anfi del Mar, Puerto Rico and Puerto de Mogán, with daily sailings. Neither stops at Amadores.

Líneas Salmón and Blue Bird timetable to Puerto de Mogán

With both companies combined, there is a boat roughly every half hour from Puerto Rico in the middle of the day.

Return timetable: the last ferry from Mogán to Puerto Rico

For the trip back from Puerto de Mogán:

The last boat to Puerto Rico leaves at 17:45 (Líneas Salmón). If you are going back to Arguineguín or Anfi, the last one is at 16:15 (Blue Bird). Blue Bird’s website mentions extra sailings on market days, although its online timetable for Friday 6 November 2026 does not show any: ask at the quay. Timetables taken from both companies’ websites on 2 November 2026.

Mogán ferry prices and crossing time

Adults pay the same with both companies; child fares differ slightly. Children under 6 travel free. As for time, Blue Bird publishes 30 minutes from Puerto Rico to Mogán (35 on the way back), 65 from Anfi and 75 from Arguineguín, because the boat calls at the ports in between. Líneas Salmón does not publish crossing times.

In Puerto Rico, Líneas Salmón sails from Puerto Escala, opposite the beach, and Blue Bird from the Puerto Base quay. Tickets are sold on their websites or at the ticket booth on the quay. You can also book them with us. Note that the ‘from’ price on the cards is not the adult fare to Puerto de Mogán, which is the one in the table above (€8, €12 or €15 one way depending on where you board, official fares checked on 2 November 2026); you see the final amount when you book.

The first three routes go to Puerto de Mogán; the fourth runs the other way, for a day in Puerto Rico or Arguineguín if you are staying in Mogán:

Blue Bird says on its website that all five of its boats have underwater viewing, including the 247-seat Blue Bird Cat catamaran; Líneas Salmón does not advertise it. If it matters to you, ask at the quay which boat is doing your crossing. If what you really want is to see the seabed, Puerto de Mogán has a tourist submarine.

How to get to Puerto de Mogán by car

By car you cannot miss it: the GC-1 motorway ends at Puerto de Mogán. It is about 53 km from the airport and about 26 km from Playa del Inglés. The last stretch, from Puerto Rico onwards, runs through tunnels and over viaducts across the ravines.

Distances are the ones the Mogán taxi cooperative uses for its prices; times assume no traffic. One thing that confuses a lot of sat-navs: the old coast road, the GC-500, is closed between Taurito and Playa de Mogán because of rockfalls. The Canary Islands Government approved the design for a 313-metre tunnel in July 2025 to restore that link, and in July 2026 announced that the works would go out to tender that same year; there is no opening date. In the meantime, you reach Taurito via the GC-1.

Parking in Puerto de Mogán: where to leave the car

Parking is the hard part, especially from mid-morning. There are three pay car parks right by the harbour:

• Aparcamiento del Puerto de Mogán, on Calle Rivera del Carmen, next to the beach. Its Google Maps listing says it is open 24 hours.
• Parking Mogán, covered, on Calle La Mina, a few metres from the beach. Open from 8:00 to midnight, with electric car charging.
• Dique sur car park (south breakwater), private and paid, inside the port, next to the quay for the scheduled boats and the submarine. Submarine passengers get two hours free, subject to availability, and vehicle access is restricted on Fridays because of the market, according to Atlántida Submarine.

None of them publishes its rates online, so check them at the entrance. Free parking does exist, but space is limited: there is some street parking and a few parking areas at the top and at the entrance of the village, which fill up early in high season. Only park where it is allowed: leaving the car across a driveway, on a hard shoulder or on a bend ends in a fine.

Taxi in Mogán: fares to the airport, Arguineguín and Puerto Rico

Taxis in the municipality belong to the Cooperativa de Taxis de Mogán, which brings together most licences and runs 24 hours a day. You can spot them easily: white with a green roof and the town council crest on the front doors. Their central number is 928 154 777, and in Puerto de Mogán there is a taxi rank next to the harbour car park.

Fares are official and set by the meter: €3.85 flag fall and €1.35 per kilometre by day (6:00 to 22:00), and €4.25 plus €1.55 per kilometre at night and on public holidays, with a €2.10 supplement at airports and ports. Using those rates, the cooperative publishes these approximate prices from Puerto de Mogán:

At the airport, always take a taxi from the official rank (floor 0, outside the terminal, according to Aena) and add the €2.10 supplement. Split between four people, a taxi from the airport works out at about €19 each.

Private transfer and hire car

If you land late, with children or with a lot of luggage, a pre-booked private transfer will be waiting for you in arrivals at a fixed price. If you plan to explore the island, a hire car is the most flexible option: pick it up at the airport and you are in Mogán in 45 minutes. You will find the options on our Gran Canaria car hire page. Bear parking in mind: if you are staying in the village, ask whether your accommodation has a space.

On foot: from the bus station, the boat or the beach to the harbour

Once you are there, Puerto de Mogán is a place to walk. The bus station is about 500 metres from the ferry quay, around seven minutes on foot. The scheduled boats dock in the harbour itself, next to Playa de Mogán, so the boat, the beach and the village are no more than a couple of minutes apart. From Taurito, on the other hand, there is no walkway: the GC-500 stretch is closed, and the practical options are the bus (routes 1, 9 and 70 and some route 91 services stop at Taurito) or a taxi via the GC-1. We explain it in our Taurito beach guide.

Going on market Friday

On Friday mornings the Puerto de Mogán market takes over and the village fills up. It is the day when leaving the car behind pays off most: the ferry from Puerto Rico or Arguineguín drops you in the middle of the market, and the bus a few minutes away. If you would rather have it all arranged, there is a trip with hotel pick-up and an optional boat ride:

Ferry, bus or car: pros and cons

In short

The easy way to reach Puerto de Mogán: bus 91 from the airport, the ferry from Puerto Rico or Arguineguín and, if you drive, set off early so you find a space. On Fridays, leave the car behind. And before you go, check that day’s timetable on the Global or ferry company website: they change with the seasons.

Once you are in the village, our Puerto de Mogán guide tells you what to see and when to go. If you are arriving by boat, there are also our guides to Puerto Rico, Anfi del Mar and Arguineguín, the other three ports on the line.
