Oran
Oran, nicknamed “El Bahia”, the radiant, can be admired one last time from the ferry deck: above the city, the chapel and fort of Santa Cruz watch over the bay from the Murdjadjo mountain. The older Sidi El Houari district preserves traces of the Spanish and Ottoman periods. Oran is also the city where raï music spread across the whole country, and its summer evenings are still lively on the seafront. Allow plenty of time before boarding, as formalities are long 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.
