About TRASMEDITERRANEA
Founded in Barcelona in 1917, Trasmediterranea has grown into Spain's leading shipping company, connecting the mainland ports with the Balearic and Canary Islands, the autonomous cities of Ceuta and Melilla, and destinations across North Africa. Onboard, travellers can expect a modern fleet and a wide range of services, from à la carte restaurants to swimming pools and boutique shops, making the crossing part of the holiday itself.
Santa Cruz de Tenerife
With more than 210,000 residents, Santa Cruz de Tenerife is the island's largest city and the second-largest in the Canaries after Las Palmas, with which it shares the status of regional capital. Founded on 3 May 1494 by the conquistador Alonso Fernández de Lugo, who planted a cross there on the feast of the Finding of the Holy Cross, the city takes its name from that founding moment. Long a secondary port, it grew in importance after the volcanic destruction of Garachico in 1706. The city also distinguished itself by repelling a British naval attack led by Admiral Nelson on 25 July 1797, in which he lost an arm — an episode still celebrated locally. From 1833 to 1927 it was the archipelago's sole capital, before sharing that status with Las Palmas. Its architecture mixes colonial heritage, such as the parish church of la Concepción, with modern landmarks like the Auditorio de Tenerife. The city is world-famous for its carnival, one of the largest anywhere. Its harbour is a major maritime crossroads between Europe, Africa and the Americas, and the main hub for inter-island links in the western Canaries.
Santa Cruz de Tenerife Ferry Terminal
The Santa Cruz de Tenerife ferry terminal sits at Moll de Sant Bertran, right in the heart of the harbour, roughly a ten-minute walk from the town centre and Plaza de España. Local buses and the tram both serve the terminal, and Tenerife North airport is about 10 kilometres away. Because this is a domestic Spanish crossing within the Canaries, no passport control applies — travellers just need to complete the usual check-in at the counter before boarding. Plan to arrive about 1.5 to 2 hours before departure, allowing extra time in high season or when travelling with a car.
Arrecife
The capital of Lanzarote since 1852, Arrecife is today home to around 52,000 people, making it the island's largest town. First recorded as a modest fishing hamlet in the 15th century, it takes its name from the volcanic reefs that once sheltered local boats from pirates and corsairs. The town endured repeated raids, most notably by the corsair Dogan in 1571, who plundered much of it — prompting fortifications such as the 18th-century Castillo de San Gabriel, now linked to the centre by a small bridge and home to a contemporary art collection. The parish church of San Ginés, the town's patron saint, and the small lagoon of Charco de San Ginés, lined with traditional fishermen's houses, form its picturesque heart. Long overshadowed by the old inland capital of Teguise, Arrecife rose to prominence thanks to its strategic coastal position and natural harbour shielded by the reefs. Today built around tourism, fishing and the island's administration, it retains an appealing, unpretentious character. Its harbour, one of the busiest in the Canaries by passenger numbers, serves as the island's principal maritime gateway.
Arrecife Ferry Terminal
Arrecife's ferry terminal stands on Avenida de los Mármoles, right on the seafront, within easy walking distance of the town centre and the Charco de San Ginés lagoon. Taxis and local buses reach it from anywhere in town, and Lanzarote's airport is barely 5 kilometres away. Since this is a domestic Spanish route linking the Canary Islands, there's no passport check involved — just the usual check-in at the company desk. Turning up about 1.5 to 2 hours before departure is advisable, and that window can stretch further during peak tourist season.
