By bus 40

Line 40 runs between the airport and the Estación de Costa Adeje bus station via Los Cristianos. Titsa gives 40 minutes for the whole route. Buses leave the airport about every 30 minutes from 06:30 to 21:40, every day. Towards Costa Adeje the bus only stops at intermediate stops to let passengers off, so it runs close to an express service.

The bus station is not on the seafront. Hotels along Fañabé, Torviscas and Playa del Duque can still be a walk or a short taxi ride away, so check the distance before you plan to walk with suitcases.

At night: line 711

Night line 711 runs from Santa Cruz via the airport and Los Cristianos to the Costa Adeje bus station. In the Costa Adeje direction it passes the airport at 23:00, 23:30, 00:05, 01:00, 01:35, 02:40, 03:20, 04:10 and 04:50. In the timetable the run between Costa Adeje and the airport takes about 30 minutes. At the airport the 711 stops at the departures terminal.

Tickets

Titsa prices single tickets by distance. Titsa says that for now it does not accept cash on board, so have a bank card ready, or use a ten+ travel card or the ten+ móvil app. A 1-day tourist ticket costs €10.00 for unlimited bus and tram travel for 24 hours from first use, and the 7-day version costs €50.00. The ten+ card itself costs €2.00, and the airport machines sell and top up the tourist tickets.

By taxi and by car

Taxis wait at the signed rank on the arrivals level of the terminal. The fare is metered. By road Costa Adeje is 20 km away, about 18 minutes without traffic, west along the TF-1 motorway to the Adeje exits. Traffic builds in the evening near the Playa de las Américas exits. Much of the seafront is pedestrian, so cars stop at the hotel entrance.

Where you meet the driver

Tenerife South Airport has a single terminal. Your driver waits in the arrivals hall, after baggage reclaim and the customs exit, holding a sign with your name. We track your flight and you get 60 minutes of free waiting after landing.

What to choose

One or two people with light bags, landing in the day: bus 40, much the cheapest option. Staying several days and planning to use buses: the 1-day or 7-day tourist ticket. Landing late: line 711 runs through the night, roughly once an hour after midnight. The bus ends at the Costa Adeje bus station, not at the hotels on the seafront. A private transfer earns its price for families with pushchairs or car seats, for groups of four to eight sharing one van at €85, and for hotels a long walk from the bus station.

Good to know

  • Titsa buses do not take cash for now: have a bank card, a ten+ card or the ten+ móvil app ready.
  • Bus 40 ends at the Costa Adeje bus station; check how far your hotel is from it.
  • After 21:40 the next bus is the night line 711, first passing the airport at 23:00.
  • At night the 711 stops at the departures terminal, one level up from arrivals.
