Algeciras

The port of Algeciras is situated in the city center, so it is within walking distance from the Old Town and easily accessible through the central entrance: Paco de Lucia.

By car

There are two accesses by car to the Port of Algeciras: North and South. The most recommended if you are approaching Algeciras via the A7 highway is the North access, through which you can directly access the port without crossing the city. The Southern access is recommended if you are already inside the city or are accessing it from Tarifa.  

By bus

 The bus station is located 800 meters from the Port of Algeciras, just a 10-minute walk away.  In addition, there is a taxi stop at the bus station to quickly get to the port.

By train

 The train station is next to the bus station. So, if you're planning to arrive at the port from the train station, the best choice is to walk for about 800 meters or take a taxi instead.  

Due to our compliance with the security regulations of the ISPS (International Ship and Port Facility Security) code, all passengers are required to proceed to the embarkation area at least three (3) hours prior to the scheduled departure time of the vessel.

Both foot passengers and those travelling by private vehicles need to proceed to the check-in area and get their boarding passes from the company ticket offices, at least two (2) hours before departure. Once the check-in is done, the passengers must pass through the police control to stamp their passport and through the Customs checkpoints to control their luggage. For the foot passengers, either the luggage is checked manually or scanned. For the private vehicles, the passage to the scanner is mandatory.  

Once these controls are completed, passengers are able to embark once the embarkation is allowed. At the ramp’s level or at the gangway of the vessel, the police agents make sure that all passengers have duly stamped their passport. Then passengers present their boarding pass to the vessel’s crew members and may embark the vessel.
