With the Premium option, Baleària includes priority boarding with a vehicle and a refund in case of cancellation.
Canary resident discount: Cádiz Lanzarote
A resident of the Canary Islands gets 75% off the passenger ticket between the Canary Islands and the mainland. It does not apply to the car, the pet or extras such as a cabin or VIP, so the real saving is smaller.
- Calculate your resident price on I Love Ferry (iloveferry.com/ferris) by switching on “Resident in the Canary Islands?”.
- Baleària checks residence electronically; if that fails, it asks for a certificate of residence and your identity document.
- More information at Canary Islands resident discount.

Ports of Cádiz and Lanzarote (Arrecife)
How to get to the Puerto de la Bahía de Cádiz
The terminal is in the Puerto de la Bahía de Cádiz. For this line, the boarding cut-off is earlier than on the inter-island ferries and is shown on your ticket: do not take it for granted. If you arrive by train or plane, leave a night's margin in Cádiz.
Arriving in Arrecife (Lanzarote)
The ship arrives at the port of Arrecife, the capital, on the east coast. It is the only Lanzarote port on this line. Playa Blanca, in the south, is a drive away; the ferries to Corralejo, in Fuerteventura, leave from there.
If you arrive without a car, there are taxis and buses in Arrecife, and it is easy to hire a car in the city.
Documents for the Cádiz Lanzarote ferry
It is a domestic route: a valid DNI, NIE or passport is enough. With a pet, its valid pet health record. With a car, the vehicle registration document, the technical data sheet (ficha técnica) and insurance. For a resident or large family discount, the document that proves it.
