Book once, land, and a Zonetransfers driver takes you from AGP to Tarifa in about 1 h 50 min. From €158 for the whole vehicle.
Information checked and updated:
Tarifa is about 157 km from Malaga Airport, around 1 hour 50 minutes via Algeciras and the N-340. A private transfer costs from €158 per vehicle for up to four people and from €189 in a minivan, to the old town, the port or the beach hotels.
The Zonetransfers fare is locked at booking and does not change at night or in traffic.
Once you clear baggage reclaim, the driver is the one at the arrivals exit holding your name. Waiting is free for 60 minutes from the real landing time.
Passport control for UK and other non-Schengen flights can take longer since the EU Entry/Exit System began; your driver adjusts.
Send your flight number when booking so the driver can follow it.
