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.
Almería
Home to around 200,000 people, Almería sits in southeastern Andalusia between the Sierra de Gádor and the gulf that shares its name. It was founded in 955 by Abd al-Rahman III, the Umayyad caliph of Córdoba, who made it the naval base of his caliphate under the name Al-Mariyya, "the watchtower." Through the 11th and 12th centuries the city enjoyed a spectacular golden age, growing into one of Al-Andalus's great centres thanks to hundreds of silk workshops and thriving Mediterranean trade. Its fortunes faded after the Christian reconquest of 1147, and it was permanently absorbed into the Crown of Castile in 1489. From that era it keeps its landmark Alcazaba, a vast triple-walled Moorish fortress overlooking the bay, along with a fortified cathedral built to withstand Barbary raids after the earthquake of 1522. Almería today anchors an intensive greenhouse-farming economy that ranks among Spain's most dynamic, while remaining a popular destination for its coastline and the Cabo de Gata nature reserve. Its port, long oriented toward North Africa, remains one of Spain's principal gateways to Algeria and Morocco.
Almería Ferry Terminal
The terminal stands at Estación Marítima s/n, right in the city centre, a short walk from the historic quarter and the Alcazaba fortress (GPS: 36.834° N, 2.464° W). Its central location makes it easy to reach on foot, by city bus, or by taxi from the railway station about 1.5 km away. Passport checks take place on site before boarding, so allowing at least 2 hours before departure is advisable.
Nador
The capital of the eastern Rif in Morocco, Nador is a city of around 160,000 people, built on the shores of the Marchica lagoon, the largest Mediterranean lagoon in North Africa. Unlike its centuries-old neighbours, Nador is a recent creation: it was founded in 1912 as a military outpost of the Spanish protectorate, close to the enclave of Melilla. Its growth accelerated after Morocco's independence in 1956, driven first by Rif mining and then by booming cross-border trade with Melilla. The Marchica lagoon, once used mainly for traditional fishing, is now the focus of a major tourism and urban development programme led by the Moroccan state. Nador remains an important centre of Amazigh (Berber) culture in the Rif, with a linguistic and social identity distinct from the rest of the country. Emigration also shapes the city deeply, with a large share of its population having family settled in Europe. Its harbour, at Beni Ensar on the lagoon shore, plays a growing economic role for both freight and the movement of Moroccans living abroad, and forms the main direct maritime link between the eastern Rif and Spain.
Nador Ferry Terminal
The terminal is located in Beni Ensar, about 12 kilometres northeast of central Nador, along the coastal road towards Melilla. Access is mainly by car, taxi or shared grand taxi from Nador's bus station, as no railway serves the port directly. Police and customs formalities are mandatory before boarding since this is an international crossing between Morocco and Spain; a valid passport is required for all passengers. Foot passengers should allow at least 3 hours before departure, with more time needed during peak periods such as the summer Marhaba operation.
