Plan your ferry from Santa Cruz de La Palma to Los Cristianos

The Santa Cruz de La Palma to Los Cristianos crossing connects Santa Cruz de La Palma and Los Cristianos in Spain. This route is part of the Canary Islands, Spain ferry network.

For a departure from Santa Cruz de La Palma, start by locating the ferry terminal and checking how to reach the correct boarding point.

On the other side of the crossing, Los Cristianos is your arrival port. Los Cristianos ferry port sits beside the resort town in southern Tenerife and serves several western-island routes. Allow for busy local roads and use the ticket details to find the correct check-in lane.

Compare the Santa Cruz de La Palma departure and Los Cristianos arrival on the same dated itinerary. Sailing times and intermediate calls can differ between directions, so use the Santa Cruz de La Palma to Los Cristianos result when planning your trip rather than assuming the outward timetable applies in reverse.

Check the total cost for everyone travelling, including any vehicle, reserved seat, cabin or other option offered. A later arrival in Los Cristianos may affect your next connection or accommodation, so compare the whole journey as well as the fare.

Use local times on both sides and check entry rules for each country on your full itinerary. Travel within Europe is not automatically free of document checks.

A direct sailing from Portsmouth or Plymouth can reduce the long drive through France. For Balearic or Canary Island ferries, allow for the separate mainland or island transfer and any restrictions on taking a hire car aboard.

Planning advice for the journey from Britain

Passengers, vehicles and the fare

Select the correct passenger category before comparing Santa Cruz de La Palma to Los Cristianos fares. A passenger-only boat cannot take a car, and a vehicle ferry may still have limited bicycle or foot-passenger availability. The travel modes shown in the facts panel should be checked against the specific sailing.

For a vehicle booking, give the full height and length including a roof box, rear rack or trailer. Where accommodation is offered, check whether a cabin or seat is required and whether meals are included. Request mobility assistance and any pet space before completing the booking, because these can have separate capacity limits.

Prices depend on the date, passenger mix, vehicle and ticket conditions. Compare the complete return cost and the amendment or cancellation terms. No fixed fare on this guide should replace a dated quote.
