Where to stay before the ferry to Ceuta or Tangier

Why sleep in Algeciras the night before

The first ferries to Ceuta and Tangier leave early, and in high season the port gets crowded. Sleeping in central Algeciras the night before lets you arrive at boarding rested, without depending on last-minute motorway traffic.

Our apartments are a few minutes' walk from the maritime station: have dinner in the centre, rest in a full apartment and walk to your ship in the morning.

Practical tips for the night before your ferry

• Arrive at the maritime station as early as your ferry operator recommends — earlier if boarding with a vehicle.
• Have your documents ready: passport required for Morocco.
• Buy supplies the evening before: supermarkets next to the apartment and your own kitchen.
• If your ferry leaves from Tarifa instead of Algeciras, it is a 20-30 minute drive; buses also connect both towns.
• Save our phone (+34 605 379 329): 24/7 assistance if anything changes with your arrival.

Why an apartment beats a room for this night

With children, moving luggage or many kilometres behind you, a full apartment makes the difference: space for everyone, a kitchen to eat on your schedule, and departure whenever your ship requires. Returning from Morocco with an uncertain schedule? Check-in with 24/7 assistance adapts.
