Visiting Morocco From Spain

Visiting Morocco From Spain - Transportation Information.

Morocco lies just 14 kilometers (9 miles) from Spain.

Flying is the easiest, fastest and less expensive way to travel to Morocco.

From Europe, Atlas Blue-North Africa's first budget charter airline is reported to have low cost airline airfares and operates flights from and to different cities in Morocco. Recommended for a flight from Madrid or Barcelona to Marrakech. Ryanair also offers a competitive fare fro Madrid or Barcelona to Fes.

In general, there are three ways to get to Morocco: Aeroplanes,trains and cars. From North America and some parts of asia, you are restricted to flights,which is fortunate. Long-distance flights will arrive at Casablanca Airport.

Cars and ferries can be used from Europe. From Paris,France you have the option of driving to Spain or taking the tedious and relatively long TGV trip to Algeciras and then taking the ferry to Tangiers.

The popular route option for tourists coming from Spain is the ferry from Algeciras(Spain) to Tangier. High speed ferries can take just 30 minutes to cross. Slower ferries are a little cheaper.

There are regular ferry services connecting Algeciras to Tangier or Cueta.
On the crossing border,there is a strict monitoring against illegal car smuggling,contraband,clandestine immigration and drug smuggling from both the Spaniards and Moroccans.

Trying to get a car into Morocco can be a hassle and time-consuming.So get your paperwork ready and be prepared for some impatient queuing.

Other options include crossing from Malaga(Spain) to either Tangier or Mellila(Spanish Morocco). But the most popular ferry services are:

Tarifa-Tangier run by FRS every hour from 9am till 11pm. 37 Euros for an adult single foot passenger (price may have changed, please check with the agency). The ferry ride takes 1h/15m.

Algeciras-tangier run by ACCIONA at 7am,9:30am,2pm,2:30pm,and 10pm.The ferry ride takes 2h/30m.

Recently, FRS has also started running the Algeciras-tangier route with three daily round trips.

ACCIONA and FRS are the two main ferry companies. Remember there is 1 hour time difference between Spain and Morocco.

Tip: You can actually take a ferry ride directly from Barcelona to Tangier without having to travel to southern spain(algeciras & Tarifa).

Note: Atlas Blue is no longer. It has merged with Royal Air Maroc.

Once in Morocco, trains and rented cars are the two main transport modes in the country. See how to get to Tangiers city (Tanger Ville) from Tanger Med port.
