Ferry Marseille – Annaba

Marseille – Annaba with Algérie Ferries

Marseille – Annaba is the rarest link in the Algérie Ferries network: one rotation a month, doubled in July. It serves the far east of Algeria, close to the Tunisian border, and attracts travellers from Annaba, Guelma, Souk Ahras and Tébessa.

The company’s ships have restaurants, shops and relaxation areas, and most passengers spend the night in a cabin. Bring something to keep you busy during the long crossing, as the opening hours of services may vary.

As departures are few, this is the line where you need to book earliest. Keep some flexibility on your dates, and check whether a sailing to Skikda or Algiers might suit you better.

Marseille

Marseille is the oldest city in France: Greek sailors from Phocaea founded Massalia here around 600 BC. The Old Port has kept the city turned towards the sea and the far shore of the Mediterranean ever since. The basilica of Notre-Dame-de-la-Garde, known to locals as the “Bonne Mère”, watches over the harbour from its hill, and the Mucem, which opened in 2013 at the mouth of the port, is devoted to Mediterranean civilisations. The Panier district, with its sloping lanes, and the nearby calanques make up a stay that many travellers extend by a day before boarding.

Annaba

Annaba is the big city of the far east of Algeria, between the sea and the Edough massif. From the ferry deck you can see the Basilica of Saint Augustine watching over the city from its hill. The site of Hippo Regius, whose Roman ruins are a few minutes from the port, recalls the role of the city in antiquity. From here, roads through wooded landscapes lead to the Tunisian border and the town of Souk Ahras.
