What awaits you at the port of Algeciras

About an hour to Ceuta, about an hour and a half to Tanger Med. According to the DFDS timetable, the ferry from Algeciras takes about an hour to Ceuta and about 1 h 30 min to Tanger Med. Besides DFDS, the departures list on the port's website shows sailings by Baleària and other companies, and each sailing has its own berth. Check the departure time and the company on your ticket.

Tickets downstairs, boarding upstairs. The Estación Marítima ferry terminal covers 12,000 m². Tickets are sold on the ground floor, which also has the ferry companies' offices and the arrivals halls. Luggage, passports and tickets are checked on the upper floor, where the departure lounges are too. If you already have a ticket, there is no need to go to the ticket desks: head straight up to the upper floor for the checks.

DFDS advises arriving 90 minutes before departure. Baleària accepts foot passengers for its Tanger Med sailing no later than 60 minutes before departure and still asks them to come earlier. So choose a ferry that leaves you time to be at the ferry terminal at least 90 minutes before it sails.

Only passengers with a ticket for the next 24 hours enter the boarding area. Since February 2023, under the port authority's rules, boarding for Ceuta and Tanger Med is open only to passengers with a booking or boarding pass for the next 24 hours. A passenger with a ticket for another date will be sent to change it. Baleària adds that an open ticket with no date is not accepted in the boarding area, so buy your ferry ticket in advance for an exact date.

Ferries to the city of Tangier leave from Tarifa. If your ticket shows a sailing from Tarifa to Tánger Ville, your ferry leaves from the port of Tarifa. Baleària takes passengers on this sailing from the port of Algeciras to Tarifa by bus free of charge. The port of Tarifa lets passengers in no earlier than two hours before departure, so there is no point arriving there too early.
