Ground Transportation

Last updated: Nov 21, 2025
Taxis

The primary taxi service consists of accredited 4x4 vehicles (like Toyota Hilux pickups) necessary to navigate the sandy terrain to Jericoacoara village. These private transfers can be booked in advance or hired upon arrival at the airport. The journey to the village takes approximately 45-60 minutes.

Rental Cars

Several car rental agencies, including Localiza, Movida, and Unidas, have counters at the airport. Important: Standard rental cars are not permitted to enter Jericoacoara village. You must park in the nearby town of Jijoca de Jericoacoara and take a separate 4x4 transfer from there. Renting a 4x4 is possible, but self-driving into the village is not recommended due to difficult terrain and local restrictions.

Public Transportation

The main form of shared public transport is the 'jardineira,' a large, open-back 4x4 truck that operates as a shared shuttle. These are a more economical option than a private taxi and wait for passengers from arriving flights. There are no conventional public buses that run directly from the airport terminal into Jericoacoara village.
