Algiers
You leave Algiers the way you arrive, facing the sea: the white city rises in an amphitheatre above the bay, hence its nickname “Algiers the White”. Before leaving, many travellers climb to the basilica of Notre-Dame d’Afrique, which overlooks the gulf, or take a last walk through the lanes of the Casbah, a UNESCO site since 1992. The neo-Moorish Grande Poste and the Jardin d’Essai du Hamma, created in the 19th century, remain popular stops. Allow time for port formalities, which are often longer in high season.
Alicante
Arriving in Alicante, the first thing you see is Santa Bárbara Castle above the port, then the Explanada de España and its palm trees. The terminal is a short walk from the centre, with the shopping streets, the station and the bus stop all within reach on foot, and Alicante-Elche airport is about twenty minutes away by car. For travellers continuing to France by road, the AP-7 motorway follows the whole Mediterranean coast.
