How to get to Terrasini from Palermo airport

La Praiola beach in Terrasini, just minutes from Palermo airport

Palermo airport "Falcone-Borsellino", also known as Punta Raisi, is one of the closest airports to any Sicilian holiday town: Terrasini is only a few minutes away. After you land you can be at the apartment very soon, with no long transfers. Here are the main ways to reach the town.

By car or taxi

This is the quickest and easiest option: it is just a short drive from the airport to Terrasini. Taxis wait right outside the arrivals hall and take you straight to your destination, which is especially handy if you land in the evening or travel with luggage. If you arrive in your own car, the motorway entrance is only steps from the terminal.

By train

The regional coastal railway serves Punta Raisi station, inside the airport, and Terrasini has its own station. It is an affordable and scenic choice: following the coast, you reach the town in a short time. It is worth checking the regional train timetable in advance, as departures can vary throughout the day.

By rental car

Picking up a rental car right at the airport is ideal if you want to explore the area freely: from Terrasini you can easily reach beaches, nature reserves and the nearby villages. It is the most flexible choice if you plan to get around a lot during your holiday.
