English We meet you in Terminal 1
Every flight lands at Terminal 1 of Lisbon Airport, including low-cost airlines. From arrivals you head straight to Costa da Caparica.
Costa da Caparica is Lisbon's big beach: more than 20 km of Atlantic sand across the Tagus, with beach bars, surf schools and the Arriba Fóssil cliffs as a backdrop. When you book with Zonetransfers, your driver tracks your flight and waits for you in Terminal 1 and takes you straight to Costa da Caparica, at a fixed price from €45.
You cross the Tagus on the 25 de Abril Bridge and follow the IC20 to the coast. There is no bridge toll in this direction, and the driver drops you at your seafront apartment or holiday home. The journey covers roughly 23 km (20–25 min without traffic), at a fixed price from €45 per car.

Costa da Caparica is where Lisbon goes to the beach, and one of the easiest places in Europe to learn to surf. Many visitors fly in for a week of surf lessons and seafood without ever going into the city.
