​by taxi

​Approx 40 minutes.

The Taxi rank is situated directly outside Arrivals and transfers from the airport to Corralejo are fairly quick and convenient and although queues can form at peak times there are plenty of Taxis arriving every few minutes so waiting time is not usually that long. Taxis on the island are strictly regulated and have meters so you will know how much they cost so no nasty surprises. During the work day which is between the hours of 06.00 - 20.00 you can expect to pay around €45.00 each way and between 20.00 - 06.00 including Sundays and Festival Days the fare rises to €49.00 each way.
