Step by step
How the journey works
Follow the legs in order, then use the official operator link for today’s timetable.
Board in
Ponta Delgada
Arrive at
Ribeira Grande
Board on the Avenida
The 102 and 103 PDFs list P. Delgada (Alfândega). Use N05’s own stop list for evening departures rather than assuming the daytime boarding point.
Match the route to your stop
Most 103 trips end at Livramento. Only selected trips continue to Ribeira Grande; check times at both ends of your chosen column.
Arrive at a genuine hub
The Terminal is listed on 110 toward Furnas and E01 toward Nordeste. Check both timetables and leave transfer time; a shared stop does not guarantee a connection.
