How to get to the Port of Algeciras
The Port of Algeciras is perfectly connected to the main cities of the peninsula through its motorway network.
By car
When you're arriving in Algeciras from Málaga or Jerez, you'll cross a river. From there, you'll see signs directing you to the port. Keep to the left and go through the tunnel. Continue to the left, and you'll arrive directly at the port entrance. After passing through security at the entrance, continue across the bridge, and you'll see the terminal on your left. Everything is very well signposted, whether you're traveling to Ceuta or Tangier.
By train
With Renfe, you can travel to any town or city in Spain from Algeciras station, or arrive there from the station itself. The train station is located right in the city center, a short walk from the bus station and the port. The port is about 800 meters away. There is also a taxi rank right outside the station entrance.
By air
The closest airports to Algeciras are Gibraltar North Front (15 km away), Jerez de la Frontera (100 km away) and Malaga (120 km away).
Parking
There are two public parking lots within the Port of Algeciras . One is located opposite the dock and the other to the right of the maritime station. The first is covered and the first hour of parking is free , while the second is open-air. Both are monitored 24 hours a day and are highly recommended for leaving your car right at the port and avoiding unnecessary travel.
There are other options outside the port, such as the Aparcamiento del Carmen (at C/ de Patriarca Doctor Perez Rodríguez nº 42), which is about a 15-minute walk from the port's departures/arrivals area, or the Parking Verboom (Av. Virgen del Carmen, S/N), located 800 meters from the port in a 3-story underground facility and monitored 24 hours a day.
Tangier Med Port
The Port of Tanger-Med is a deep-water port opened in 2007, and located on the slope of the Strait of Gibraltar, about 40 kilometres from the city of Tangier, in Oued Rmel, in northern Morocco. It is also very close to the Spanish city of Ceuta, just 20 kilometres away to be precise. Its strategic location, at the point on the Moroccan coast nearest to the Iberian Peninsula, makes it a key location on the maritime trade routes of Europe, the Americas, and naturally Africa.
How to get to the Tangier Med Ferry Terminal?
You can access the Tanger-Med Port via gate 2 that leads directly to the ferry terminal. You go through both immigration and customs control there. The port also has a shuttle service that will take you to the boarding area.
By car
You can either take the toll motorway or the coastal road. For instance, from Marrakesh, going through Casablanca and Rabat, the motorways to take are the A7, A3, A1 or A4; Tétouan-Tanger-Med, the N2 and lastly, Tangier-Tanger-Med, the A4.
Casablanca and Rabat are connected by the A3 motorway which runs from Kenitra and joins up with the A1 which goes through to Tangier. The A2 runs from Rabat to Fez. The A7 runs from Casablanca to the south, and for now, it goes through to Marrakesh. The A5 runs from Casablanca to Mohammedia and El Jadida, along the coast.
Toll motorways are in better condition, and there are emergency telephones, petrol stations and restaurants all along them.
By bus
There are approximately 40 kilometres between Tangier Ville and Tanger-Med. You can get there on the direct bus that departs from the Port of Tangier city and goes through to Tanger-Med. Departures are hourly.
By train
On a daily basis, there are eight trains that cover the Tangier-Tanger-Med route. It’s the most recommendable mode of transport simply because it’s the fastest. The train stops at the Port of Tanger-Med station which is about 3 kilometres from the port itself, but there is a free shuttle service that will take you to the ferry terminal. The trip lasts 10 minutes
By taxi
In order not to be tied down by timetables, many choose taxis to get around Morocco because it’s cheap and convenient. There are two types of taxi, “grand taxi”, which are old cars that take you wherever you want to go and the “petit taxi”, which can carry a maximum of 3 passengers and which do not generally travel between cities. A very important thing to remember is to haggle with the driver before getting in, to avoid any surprises.
Parking
There are two public car parks in the port. One right at the vehicle entrance at gate 3, next to the recreational and food area, and the other next to the ferry terminal at gate 2.
How to get to the Ceuta Ferry Terminal?
In Ceuta, the port is relatively near the centre. If you’re not in a rush, it’s a pleasant 15 minute stroll from the port to the centre, where the main hotels are, with incredible views of the coast.
By car
You can access the Port of Ceuta via N352. Once in the city, follow directions to the port. You’re five minutes from the centre by car and 4 kilometres from the border with Morrocco.
By taxi
The Radio Taxi company is located on the Alfau dock (no street number). Their number is +34 956 515 406, although there are several taxi ranks, both at key points in the city and at the port itself. There is also a taxi rank at the border. If you don’t feel like walking, this is your best option.
Services
The Port of Ceuta is a small port when compared to the Port of Algeciras. But this doesn’t mean that it doesn’t have all the necessary services for passengers. There are kiosks where you can get information about the city as well as nearby places of interest in Morocco, as well as lounge areas, bars and restaurants selling mainly fast food, where you can catch a bite to eat whilst waiting for your ferry.
There are also gift shops with souvenirs of the city and a few bazaars where you can buy local products.
Right at the entrance to the port, there is a petrol station and several shops and supermarkets.
Car park
In the Port of Ceuta, there is a public car park with 252 spaces. It has rates by the minute or by the day, as well as monthly passes and the first half hour is free. It’s located at the port itself, with 24 hour surveillance and any kind of vehicle can park here.
How to get to the Tangier Ville Ferry Terminal?
By car
You can drive from Rabat to Tangier via the N-6, the distance between these two cities being around 238 kilometres. Casablanca is 330 km away via the motorways A5, A6 or A1.
By bus
Tangier has two long-haul bus stations. The companies are:
- C.T.M.: Place d' Espagne. Gare routière-Tel. 00212 (0)39 931 172
- TRAMESA.: 29 Av. Youssef Ben Tacheffine-Tel. 00212 (0)39 943 348
Departures are not regular and it takes longer than other modes of transport.
__By train__
From major cities such as Marrakesh, Casablanca, Nador, Fez and Rabat, there are high-speed trains to Tangier with the Moroccan company ONCF. Sections not covered, such as small tourist cities like Agadir or Essaouira, have connections via the Supratours bus service that connect areas not served by trains. It is a very fast and convenient way to travel.
__By taxi__
Travelling by taxi in Morocco is fairly cheap, although it is important to agree upon the fare with the driver before setting off. There are “grand taxis”, old cars where the quality-price ratio is quite good, and “petit taxis” that only accept up to 3 passengers, and are generally not allowed to travel between cities.
It is a safe, convenient and cheap way to travel and very recommendable if you don’t want to be tied down to timetables.
Car parks
At the port itself, there is a car park that is an esplanade where you can leave your car. A better, indoor car park is currently on the drawing board though.
There are quite a few car parks at the south end of Mohamed V Avenue, which are suitable for long-stay parking. Outside the medina, in the Grand Souk, there is a car park with surveillance.
Another option is to leave your car at Tangier Airport where there is a car park.
