Ground Transportation

Last updated: Jul 25, 2025
Taxis

Taxis and 'remises' (private car services) are readily available outside the arrivals hall. A trip to downtown Mar del Plata typically takes about 15-25 minutes. It is recommended to use the official airport services. Ride-sharing apps like Uber and Cabify also operate in the area and can be used for airport pickups.

Rental Cars

Several car rental agencies have desks inside the main terminal building. Companies include major international brands like Avis, Hertz, and Localiza, as well as local providers. It is highly recommended to book your vehicle in advance, especially during the peak summer season (December-February).

Public Transportation

The most economical option is the local public bus (colectivo). Bus line 542 connects the airport with various points in the city, including the central bus and train station. The bus stop is located just outside the airport terminal. Payment requires a rechargeable SUBE card, which must be purchased and loaded with credit beforehand.
