Taxi in Haría
Haría is the village of the palm valley: it sits in a green hollow in the middle of a dry island, with low houses, a square and a market that draws people from across the north. It is the capital of the municipality that bears its name, and the journeys to Órzola, Arrieta and Famara beach start from here.

A valley of palms in the north
The village groups at the foot of the valley, surrounded by palms and smallholdings that make use of the shade and the damp. The old quarter is walked round in no time, with the square and the church at its heart. What lies far away are the beaches and the viewpoints, and up to them the taxi is the option for anyone who does not want to drive up and down the northern road.
The Saturday market
On Saturday mornings the municipal market takes over the centre and fills the village with stalls and visitors. Parking nearby is difficult and traffic gets awkward until it finishes. Going by taxi and coming back afterwards is the most comfortable option; as it is the busiest day, it is worth telling the dispatch before you leave the house rather than when you have finished shopping.
Ranks and the municipal dispatch
In the village there is a signposted rank at the central points, but not in every street nor on the tracks out to the beaches. The Haría dispatch serves the whole municipality — the village, Órzola, Arrieta and Famara — so the same contact works for almost every journey you make in the north.
From the airport to the north
Haría is at the opposite end of the island from the terminal: the vehicle crosses the interior and climbs to the northern side. It is one of the longer journeys, so if you are arriving with cases or as a group, mention the luggage when you order the vehicle so that a car with the right boot is sent.
Frequently asked questions
What day is the market in Haría? +
Saturdays, in the morning, in the centre of the village. It is the busiest day and the one with fewest places to park; if you plan to go, order the taxi in advance and arrange the way back down to the coast as well.
Is there a taxi rank in Haría? +
Yes, at the central points of the village, but not on the roads to the beaches nor at every exit. If you see no car, call the Haría dispatch, which covers the whole municipality, or ask at the accommodation. This portal handles no bookings.
Can I use Haría as a base for going to Órzola or Famara? +
Yes, the village is the centre of the municipality and from there the journeys set off to the port, the coast and the beach. They are runs along northern roads with few stops in between: ask for the vehicle with margin to spare and confirm the exact pick-up address.
How do I get back to the airport from the north? +
By calling the Haría dispatch hours in advance. It is one of the longest journeys on the island, so leave margin against the flight time; the indicative figure on this page is a road estimate with a date, not a guaranteed time.
