Almeria Port Sees 402% Surge in Passenger Traffic, Nador Route Reopens
Nearly 77,000 passengers have transited through the port of Almería from Nador, Melilla and Algerian ports, between January and May, an increase of 402% compared to the same period in 2021.
In detail, 20,000 passengers have passed through Almería from Nador, a port with which maritime passenger traffic has resumed in April. During the first five months of the year, nearly 2,200 tourists disembarked in Almería, while the port did not welcome any tourists in 2021 due to the health crisis, reports Europa Press.
