Tangier Med
Tangier Med is the great modern port on the Strait of Gibraltar, opened in 2007 on the Moroccan coast, about forty kilometres east of Tangier. It handles heavy container traffic and has a passenger terminal from which ferries leave for Sète, Marseille, Genoa, Barcelona and the ports of southern Spain. Allow a margin for police and customs formalities before boarding, especially in summer.
