Book a ferry at the port of Agaete

1. By car

The port of Agaete is easily accessible by car via the GC-2, or Northern Motorway, which connects Las Palmas de Gran Canaria with Agaete in around half an hour.

When you reach the town, the road descends towards the coast; simply follow the signs for "Puerto" and "Ferries" to the seafront.

As a local alternative, the GC-231 island road connects central Agaete with the inland neighbourhoods, although passengers usually head straight down to the quay to board.

Near the port area, signs separate cars waiting to board from passengers entering the terminal on foot.

If you are boarding with a vehicle, continue to the pre-boarding area for your route and keep your booking documents to hand when requested.

Before setting off, you can check your ferry timetable and receive alerts on Kikoto Ferries, so you reach the boarding point at Las Nieves without any stress.

2. By taxi

Taking a taxi to the port of Agaete is very convenient, especially if you have luggage, are travelling in a group or prefer not to rely on parking at the quay.

Agaete's local taxi association operates in the town, with its main rank in the centre, a short distance from the road down to the coast and seafront.

The journey between the town centre and the quay is short, taking just a few minutes, although the final fare depends on the time, day and any applicable surcharges.

It is advisable to ask the driver for an estimate before setting off, as the initial charge and fares are regulated by the local authority.

You can easily find taxis at the busiest locations in Agaete and its port, including:

• The taxi rank in central Agaete, beside Calle Escultor Martín Andújar.
• The area around the quay and seafront avenue in Puerto de Las Nieves, opposite the ferry terminal.
• The area around Las Nieves beach and its restaurants, which is very busy in high season.
• The Dedo de Dios viewpoint, one of the port's most visited spots.

When ordering a taxi, simply say you are going to the ferry terminal at the port of Agaete, in Puerto de Las Nieves; taxi drivers know the ferry timetables well and will take you to the correct entrance.

3. By public transport

Travelling by public transport to the port of Agaete is convenient and affordable, especially if you are coming from Las Palmas de Gran Canaria or other towns in the north of the island.

The regional Global bus network connects the capital and neighbouring towns with Puerto de Las Nieves, travelling via Gáldar, the main interchange in the north-west.

The most useful options for completing the journey are:

• Global route 103: connects Las Palmas de Gran Canaria with Puerto de Las Nieves via Gáldar, with services throughout the day.
• Regional connections via Gáldar: from its bus station, several north-western routes connect with Agaete and its port.
• Free Fred. Olsen Express bus: a service coordinated with the ferry that picks up passengers in Las Palmas (Santa Catalina Park) and must be booked together with the ticket.

As timetables change with the season, always check the operator's latest information and allow plenty of time before boarding closes at the quay.

If you are already in Puerto de Las Nieves, the quay is just steps from the seafront and beach, so you can reach it on foot in only a few minutes.
