Transfer from Lisbon Airport to Ericeira
Your journey follows the A8 northbound from Lisbon Airport, then merges onto the A21 towards the coast, passing through Loures and Malveira before descending into Ericeira. The drive passes near the UNESCO-listed Mafra National Palace and opens onto coastal views as you approach the fishing village and world-renowned surf destination on Portugal's western edge.
Pickup happens at the arrivals baggage-hall exit of your landing terminal, where your driver displays a name sign. The 44 km journey typically takes 51 minutes in standard traffic; allow longer during rush hours (7–9 am, 5–7 pm weekdays). Ericeira itself has limited street parking in the town centre and narrow access roads, so door-to-door delivery beats hunting for a spot after a long flight.
Public transport requires a metro change at Alameda, then a regional bus from Campo Grande (Carris Metropolitana lines 2801, 2803, or 2740), taking 90 minutes to 2 hours total and costing €3.10–€4.50 per person. A private transfer avoids crowded buses, luggage hassle, and multiple changes—critical when arriving tired with surfboards or family in tow.
