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.
Oran
Algeria's second city, with close to 1.5 million people across its metropolitan area, Oran is the great hub of western Algeria, oriented towards the Mediterranean since its founding by Andalusian sailors in the early 10th century. It reached its height under the Almohads before passing, over the centuries, under Spanish and then Ottoman rule, leaving behind a varied architectural heritage: the Casbah, the Santa Cruz fort overlooking the bay, and Place du 1er-Novembre at the heart of the modern city. Known for its cultural energy — it is the birthplace of raï music — and its seafront promenade, Oran is also one of the country's major economic and industrial centres. Its harbour, one of Algeria's busiest with over 10 million tonnes of cargo handled each year, is the region's main maritime gateway to Spain.
Oran Ferry Terminal
The terminal is located at 01 rue du 20 Août, right in the city centre, close to Place du 1er-Novembre (GPS: 35.711° N, 0.640° W). Taxis and public transport reach it easily from anywhere in the city. As with any international sailing to Algeria, passport and customs checks are mandatory before boarding; allowing at least 3 hours before the scheduled departure is recommended, especially in high season when crowds can build up.
