Spain-Morocco Ferry Routes Fully Reopen, Allowing Vehicle Transport

Maritime passenger traffic with vehicles from Algeciras, Tarifa and Almería to Moroccan ports resumed on Tuesday, a week after the reopening of maritime borders between the two countries.
Passengers without vehicles embarked again on ferries bound for Morocco from the Spanish ports last Tuesday, after two years of suspension for health and diplomatic crisis reasons. This, after Pedro Sanchez changed his position on the Sahara and visited King Mohammed VI, marking the beginning of a "new stage" in the relationship between the two countries.
On Tuesday, a week later, passengers with vehicles are also allowed to travel to Morocco, reports The Objective, noting that most Moroccans in Europe and many tourists prefer to go to the kingdom with their cars, caravans or motorcycles.
For this day, ten ferries will depart from Algeciras to Tanger-Med, the first at 9:30 a.m. and the last at 11:30 p.m. In Tarifa, six departures to Tanger-Ville are announced, the first at 9:00 a.m. and the last at 9:00 p.m. Only passengers with a ticket, a vaccination certificate or a PCR test will be allowed to board.
More than 300 passengers and more than 100 vehicles will also embark this Tuesday on the Wasa Express ferry from the Baleària shipping company, from Almería to Nador. With the full resumption of maritime links between Spain and Morocco, the Marhaba Operation, canceled for two years, will be able to take place under good conditions.
