Cities servedSalinas · La Libertad · Santa Elena · Ancón · Atahualpa

Línea 12 is a two-circuit public bus route on the Santa Elena Peninsula. Unlike single-run lines such as Línea 7, Línea 12 is split into two connected circuits that some buses run end-to-end and others do not — riders may need to change buses partway through the journey.

ℹ️ Línea 12 has two circuits. Circuit 1 (marked red on the map) runs from the Fuerte Militar in Salinas to Terminal Terrestre Sumpa. Circuit 2 (marked blue on the map) runs from Terminal Sumpa onward to Ancón, and every 3rd bus continues further to Atahualpa. Some buses run the full Salinas → Ancón/Atahualpa journey without stopping; others terminate at Terminal Sumpa, where riders transfer to the next Circuit 2 bus.
ℹ️ How to know where a bus is going: Check the destination sign on the front of the bus. Signs are not always updated in time, so if in doubt, ask the driver to confirm before boarding — especially if you need Ancón or Atahualpa specifically.

Tips for Riding Línea 12

  • Check the sign, then check with the driver: Destination signs aren't always updated — always confirm with the driver if you're headed to Ancón or Atahualpa specifically.
  • Transferring at Terminal Sumpa: If your bus terminates there, you'll need to board the next Circuit 2 bus to continue to Ancón/Atahualpa.
  • Fare: Priced by how many municipios you cross — see Fare Zones above.
  • Change: Drivers rarely carry change for bills over $5. Bring coins or small bills.
  • Boarding: The bus will stop anywhere along the route — wave it down from the roadside.
