Anyone had recent experience of taking the ferry to Morocco?

Tangier Med is quite far away from Tangier itself but apparently there is a bus.

I've not done it for a long time, but as usual Seat61 has lots of info.

He recommends getting a ferry from Tarifa rather than Algeciras as they still go to the town port in Tangier. There are free connecting buses from Algeciras for these ferries.

If you do end up in Tangier-Med there is indeed a bus to the town which he quotes a fare of 25Dh about 2.50 Euros.

I was thinking the bus ride from Tangier Med would be quite interesting, and the ferries are bigger with open decks.

Note that there are no trains running to Algeciras currently - you'll have to endure rail replacement buses from Antequera Santa Ana. This is expected to last into 2027 - the precise date for reopening has (so far) not been announced.

I just clocked that. AVE to Antequera and then a bus.
