Recife → Boa Viagem: key facts

Boa Viagem from Recife Airport (REC) by private transfer: €25 per car (1–3 people) or €35 per van (4–8), fixed per vehicle and identical to the checkout price. On the road it is 3 km, roughly 10 min when traffic is light and 10–20 min when it is not.

Meeting point: The driver waits in the arrivals hall (Desembarque) of the passenger terminal, just after the exit from baggage claim and customs, holding a sign with your name. Flight tracking is included, the first hour after landing is free waiting time, and the driver carries your bags to the car.

Boa Viagem begins right next to the airport, so this is the shortest transfer in Recife: around 3 km to the southern end of the district and 6 to 8 km to the hotels further north. The route leaves the terminal towards Avenida Mascarenhas de Morais and crosses to the seafront via one of the cross streets, then follows Avenida Boa Viagem or the parallel Avenida Conselheiro Aguiar. Most rides take 5 to 20 minutes depending on the hotel and the time of day.

Boa Viagem is Recife's main beach and hotel district, a seven-kilometre strip of high-rise apartment towers and hotels facing the Atlantic. A reef runs parallel to the shore and creates calm pools at low tide. The seafront promenade, kiosks and cycle path line Avenida Boa Viagem, and Parque Dona Lindu marks the northern end near Pina. Swimming is only advised in the marked areas, as warning signs along the beach explain.

Public transport: No metro station in Boa Viagem; the CBTU electric line runs inland of the beach district.
