Buses in and from Arguineguín: Global lines, stops, fares and timetables

By Terje Moy, editor · Published 25 October 2026

Four Global lines stop in Arguineguín: 91 (Las Palmas – Puerto de Mogán), 90 (Telde – Faro de Maspalomas), 33 and 39. Pay the driver by cash or bank card, and check the current timetable on guaguasglobal.com.

Four lines of Global, the island's main bus company, stop in Arguineguín: 91 (Las Palmas – airport – Arguineguín – Puerto de Mogán), 90 (Telde – airport – Maspalomas – Arguineguín – Playa del Cura), 33 (Playa del Inglés – Puerto de Mogán) and 39 (Playa del Inglés – Playa del Cura). A fifth, line 6, makes one trip a day to the valley village of Cercados de Espino. You pay the driver with cash or a bank card, and the airport ride costs €4.95 (AENA's published fare).

That is the short version. The rest of this page covers where to board, which line suits which trip, how payment and the TransGC card work, and the things the timetables do not tell you. Airport transfers as a whole (taxi, shuttle, hire car) are compared in the airport transfer guide; this page stays with the bus.

Which lines stop in Arguineguín

Global's own line pages show these stops in Arguineguín. Treat the table as the working picture and check the line page before a tight connection.

Two lines that appear in many online lists do not serve Arguineguín. Line 32 (Playa del Inglés – Puerto de Mogán) runs through Taurito and the Cruce de Mogán junction on its current Global page, and line 38 goes from Puerto de Mogán to La Aldea de San Nicolás. If a blog tells you to catch a 32 or a 38 in Arguineguín, check Global before you wait at a stop.

Mogán council's tourism site and AENA also list a line 1 (Las Palmas – Puerto de Mogán). Global's own page for line 1 shows no timetable, so nothing confirms that it stops in Arguineguín. Use 91 and the others above. The council's own "how to move around" page, for its part, does not mention lines 91 or 90 at all, even though they serve the town.

Where the bus stops in Arguineguín

Global names Casa Memo as the stop in the town centre, on lines 90, 91 and 6, with Sunwing (by the hotel) and Patalavaca as neighbouring stops on the 91 and 90 pages. Global's pages also list a "Barranco de Arguineguín" stop. Global does not publish the exact street position of each stop, so look for the bus shelters along the main road and ask the driver if you are unsure.

Because the 91 and 90 run along the same coast road, you can ride a few stops without going into the centre: from the Sunwing stop to Patalavaca, say, to reach the beach at Patalavaca. If your apartment is at one end of the seafront and the stop is at the other, a walk along the promenade can be as quick as waiting for a bus.

Line 91: the direct bus to the airport, Las Palmas and Puerto de Mogán

Line 91 is the one most visitors use. Southbound it leaves Las Palmas from Estación Santa Catalina (platform 21), stops at Estación San Telmo (platform 12) on most variants, serves the airport area and then runs down the coast to Puerto de Mogán. Northbound it starts at the Puerto de Mogán station (platform 1).

On a school-term weekday Global lists 26 departures from Las Palmas to Puerto de Mogán, first at 05:55 and last at 21:00, and 24 the other way, first at 05:55 and last at 22:15. Those are times at the line's start, not at Arguineguín, which comes part-way along. Saturdays, holidays and school holidays have separate timetables. Global's airport page gives the pattern at Gran Canaria Airport: line 91 to Puerto de Mogán leaves hourly at :35, and the whole run to Puerto de Mogán takes about 60 minutes.

Line 90, line 33 and line 39

Line 90 runs roughly hourly between Telde and Playa del Cura, via the airport and the Faro de Maspalomas. On Global's page the first bus from Telde is 06:00 and the last reaches Playa del Cura about 20:30; in the other direction the first leaves Playa del Cura at 08:00 and the last at 22:00, with a gap between 20:15 and 22:00. The page does not say which stop those times refer to. It is the sensible choice if you are heading for the Maspalomas lighthouse area; for the dunes and Meloneras, see Maspalomas and Meloneras from Arguineguín.

Line 33 connects Playa del Inglés with Puerto de Mogán through Arguineguín, Patalavaca and Puerto Rico. Global's page shows only the Saturday and holiday timetable, from 09:25 to 17:55 in both directions, about every 30 minutes. Weekday times are not shown, so do not assume the same pattern on a Tuesday.

Line 39 links Playa del Inglés and Playa del Cura through Arguineguín, Patalavaca, Puerto Rico and Amadores. On weekdays it runs hourly: Playa del Inglés to Playa del Cura from 08:55 to 18:55, and back from 09:45 to 19:45. No weekend service was shown, so plan a weekday, or take the 91.

What the bus costs, and how you pay

Fares on Gran Canaria are set by the island's transport authority (AUTGC) between tariff stops and calculated per passenger by distance, so two lines can price the same stretch differently. The fares we can quote come from AENA's airport bus page, paid directly to the driver:

• Airport to Arguineguín (lines 90 and 91): €4.95
• Airport to Patalavaca (line 91): €5.25
• Airport to Puerto Rico (line 91): €5.45
• Airport to Puerto de Mogán (line 91): €6.80 (Global's airport page gives the same figure)
• Airport to Las Palmas, Santa Catalina: €2.95; to San Telmo: €2.30 (Global's airport page)

AENA's page is undated, so confirm before you budget to the cent. Global does not publish a fixed fare for Arguineguín to Las Palmas or Arguineguín to Puerto de Mogán. Enter your stops on Global's fare page, or ask the driver.

On board you can pay with:

• cash, coins and notes (accepted since 1 June 2021);
• a bank card, debit or credit, or a phone with contactless payment, since every bus has a card terminal;
• an authorised transport card, such as the TransGC.

Small notes make the driver's life easier.

The TransGC card: worth it for a longer stay

The TransGC is a stored-value card anyone can buy. Issuing costs €5, and you load at least €10 and at most €100 at a time. You get bonus credit on top: 20 % on top-ups of €10 to €59, 30 % on €60 to €99 and 40 % on exactly €100. A change of bus within 30 minutes of your first validation is free if the trip is under 12 km, and discounted beyond that. The card expires after ten years and the money on it is not refundable.

For a week with two airport rides it will not pay back the €5. For a few weeks of regular riding it can. You apply at bonos.autgc.org or in the AUTGC app, which asks for an ID, passport or NIE, and collect the card at a listed point. Top-ups can also be made at 24-hour machines in places such as Puerto Rico, Faro de Maspalomas and Santa Catalina, and at some kiosks and tobacconists. Online top-ups must be activated at a machine or sales point.

Reading the timetable before you go

Global's site (guaguasglobal.com) has a page for each line with the timetable by day type. A few habits save trouble:

• Pick the right day type: school-term weekday, Saturday, or Sunday and holiday. They differ, and school-holiday weeks differ again.
• Remember that the times are at the line's start, not necessarily at the stop you will use.
• Global posted a winter-timetable notice dated 22 October 2026, tied to the clocks going back at 02:00 on Sunday 25 October. If you read this in late October or November, check that your line has not changed.
• The Global information phone is +34 928 25 26 30.

The published last departures on lines 90 and 91 are around 22:00, so after a late dinner further along the coast, think of a taxi (see taxis in Arguineguín) as the plan B.

Trips worth doing by bus

• To the airport: line 91 or 90, about €4.95. By car it is about 42 km and roughly 33 minutes without traffic. For the flight side, see flights to Gran Canaria.
• To Puerto de Mogán: line 91 or 33. By car it is about 16 km and 21 minutes. The harbour village has its municipal market on Fridays and a craft market on Mondays; see the Puerto de Mogán markets and Puerto de Mogán.
• To Puerto Rico and Amadores: lines 91, 33 and 39.
• To Mogán village: line 91 or 33 to Puerto de Mogán, then line 84 up the valley. Line 84 links Puerto de Mogán with Mogán village roughly hourly, so you change at Puerto de Mogán from line 91; it does not call at Arguineguín. See Mogán village.
• To Las Palmas: line 91 from Arguineguín to Santa Catalina or San Telmo.
• To Cercados de Espino: line 6 runs one early trip up the valley at 06:30 from Arguineguín (Casa Memo) and back down at 07:05, so it is not a day-trip option. Global marks it as a "taxi-guagua" and does not explain the term. Treat it as a service for people who live there, and check by phone before relying on it. See Cercados de Espino.

More ideas for days out without a car are in day trips by bus. If you are staying in Arguineguín you do not need a bus for the Tuesday market; it is in the town centre.

Bus or boat along the coast?

Between Arguineguín, Anfi, Puerto Rico and Puerto de Mogán two boat operators also run, Líneas Salmón and Líneas Blue Bird. Salmón's published adult single fares are €5 Arguineguín – Anfi, €8 Arguineguín – Puerto Rico and €15 Arguineguín – Puerto de Mogán. We would take the bus one way and the boat the other, once, for the view of the cliffs; the times and routes are in boats from Arguineguín.

Practical tips

• Know your stop name (Casa Memo, Sunwing, Patalavaca) and tell the driver where you are heading.
• For the airport, check that the bus is a 90 or 91, not one of the Las Palmas-only lines.
• If you have mobility needs, see accessible Arguineguín for the wider picture; this page cannot promise that a particular bus is step-free.
• If you are driving instead, parking in Arguineguín and the transport overview cover what you need.
