Busses on
Gran Canaria

Local bus
Local bus transportation is functioning well all over the Island. Bus services provide the cheapest way of getting around the island and cover a large proportion of its significant destinations as well as some of the smaller villages. Buses are easily identified by their green and blue colour and all are clearly marked with their service number and destination. Frequent and reliable services run between Puerto Rico, Las Palmas, Playa del Inglés and Maspalomas.

On the southern part of the Island the busses are green and blue and are named Salcai Global.

On the North side of the Island, they are blue and are named Utinsa Global.

You buy the ticket direct in the bus, when going into the bus, and notice, that the chauffer normally doesn't change bills. Therefore always remember coins to the bus.
