EuroFerrys began its Maritime activities of passenger, vehicle and commercial transport in 1999, running ferries between Algeciras. Ceuta and Tangier.
EUROFERRYS operate 2 relatively new passenger vessels - Atlantica on the Tangier route and Pacifica, the largest highspeed catamaran in the world.
There are three crossings daily. The ferry from Algeciras to Tangier took 2 1/2 hours. The seas were quite choppy on our way there, but you could hardly feel it. We sailed through the Straits of Gibraltar with great views of the Rock of Gibraltar. On board was comfortable seating and lounge areas along with a pricey snack bar and eating area.
On the way back, we took the fast ferry on the Nordic Jet Line, as it was quite choppy. That trip was an amazing 45 minutes. We literally flew over the water. What an experience. This time we were brought to Tarifa.
The posted Tariffs when we went were as follows:
Passengers - Pasajeros - Passagers
Adults - Adultos - Adultes: 23,50 Euro
Children: 11,75 Euro
Vehicles - Vehiculos - Vehicules: 72.90 Euro
Motorcylcles: 22,40 Leave a Comment

Our transportation to and from Algeciras was with "Cost Africa". Pick Ups in various points of the Costa Del Sol at the indicated time schedule. Our pick-up time was around 6 a.m. After collecting many other passengers, we were taken to Algeciras where we were to embark to Tangiers. After our ferry ride we were met by our Moroccan guide and our transportation through Tangiers was with "Viajes Norafrica." The bus was spacious, clean and air-conditioned. Upon our return, this time to Tarifa, we were again met by "Cost Africa" for our return trip to our hotel.
Hans and I were impressed with the services of both companies. Leave a Comment Theme: Bus

What a shock I had in my second visit, from the ferry to the hotel continental, 5 minutes walk, they wanted to charge me 50 dirhams!!! 5 Euros!!! Even more expensive than in Marbella! The petit taxi was a little more reasonable, only 40 dirhams, still 4 Euros, incredible!!!
Ok, many will know about the differences between the petit taxis (the blue ones normally Fiat puntos or small peugeots) and the Grand Taxis (normally bigger cars as old Mercedes and not so old lately), normally you share but in my last visits we had been able to book them for ourselves, for more price .The petit taxis normally do a fix itinerary as if they were little buses . remember to confirm the tariff beforehand and that if you book through the hotel reception it will be more expensive as they will get their own commission Leave a Comment Theme: Other

there are a couple of companies to choose, if you go to Algeciras there are boats nearly every hour, from Tarifa the company is called FRS, check at www.frs.com, I use it often as I prefer to leave my car there that at Algeciras, looks much safe and it is high speed (it is says 45 minutes, but I had never been lucky on it, always delays getting into the boat!
You can get buses from many European cities to Morocco that includes the ferry ticket on the bus ticket, Eurolines is most famous one

 TANGER = TANGIER = READ
THE UPPER WRITING :-) by matcrazy1
But I arrived to Tangier by own car. I drove from Poland (it's in central Europe ;-) through Germany, France, Spain, took a ferry from Algeciras to Ceuta (it's the cheapest option!), Spanish enclave in northern Africa. I crossed Moroccan border very early in the morning and visited Tetouan first. The road Tetouan - Tangier (54 km) crosses some hills, is well signed, in good condition and almost empty.
After a visit to Tangier, 2 hours before dusk, I took a loop scenic drive to see Cape Spartel (great!) and Hercules Caves (a tourist trap). This secondary, mountainous, renovated road had new, asphalt pavement and was well signed. Direction signs were always written in both Arabic and Latin letters (Tangier = Tanger). Well, the road was a bit too narrow with no shoulders at some parts. But I can't complain, the traffic was very, very light. I got to Asilah for a night that day.
Tanger is located in northern Morocco, at the Atlantic coast at the distance of 100km (62 mi) from Ceuta (Spain - connection shared taxi), 345 km (214 mi) from Fez (connection - train) and 280 km (174 mi) from Rabat (connection - shared taxi).
I was a bit afraid of driving in Moroccan cities for the two reasons:
- different, chaotic traffic (I experienced it in Turkey and Tunisia before :-),
- possible thefts.
So, as always, both my car and luggage was insuranced against theft (in Poland). My 5 years old Nissan Sunny had all luggage hidden in a trunk while parked on a street at daytime and no luggage at night.
Warning for fellow thefts: my poor car is equiped in unique (top secret) alarms and there are never any valuables left inside. Better do not waste your time :-).

 I LEFT MY CAR ON THIS STREET by matcrazy1
My first problem was where to park a car in Tangier. I was not going to sleep in Tangier, thus I couldn't leave a car at a hotel parking. I was looking for a safe place not very far from the medina. Well, forget about air-conditioned, underground or multistory parking lots. It's neither Western Europe nor the USA, it's Africa.
As usual, before entering any larger foreign city, I studied a map (French Michelin offers the best one) and decided to drive towards Grand Socco. There were many cars and taxis parked on the square but no place for my car. I parked a car on this poor street, up the square, on my picture. My car was left hidden among local cars, at approx. 5 min. walk down Grand Socco. The street was full of local craftsmen (in metal) working hard and noisy. Leave a Comment Theme: Car/Motor Home
