I went to Nador.... which is a SH#T HOLE.... If you can get a ferry to Mellila im sure t'would be fine...... heres a pic of the boat you may go on although this one is Almeria to Nador (almeria is a sh#thole too btw)..... Gets very busy in the summer...
My advice, do the short crossing from Algeciras or get there during daylight hours, not at half past bloody two in the morning like we stupid idiots did....

I did the overnight from Almeria to Melilla which left around sunset. It was ramadan at the time and the passengers got out their food parcels once the sunset and shared the food around.
I enjoyed the ferry though the border crossing the next morning from Melilla to Nador was more extreme than entering via Tanger or Ceuta/Fnediq.

Ferries from Morocco
Just a thought for next year.
I may well go to Morocco (Via Spain)
The query is:
I should like to continue my round Europe trip by taking a ferry from Morocco to Sicily, & home via Italy.
Does anyone know if there is such a ferry, if so, what line, and approximate cost.
This is just a preliminary enquiry for a possible 3 week trip next year.

In theory you could visit Algeria instead of Morocco (ferry to Oran) and then get a ferry from Tunisia (from Tunis) to Sicily. http://www.aferry.com/ has route info.

What's the deal with Algeria. Do you still need a body guard following you around?
Another ferry question
Hoping to get to Morocco towards the end of next month and have been looking on the ferry websites to try & get a rough estimate of ferry costs and times of crossings on the Algecieras/ Ceuta routes.
None of the ferry sites I found are listing crossings in June is this normal or does it mean they are booked?

It's because, during the month of June, the crossing is choked with mating Ocelots and therefore you can simply ride across their heaving, furry, bodies.
Algecieras/ Tangers last week 53 Euros slow ferry 2 1/2 hours and then Algecieras/ Tarifa back 70 euros fast ferry 35 mins. On both crossings there were several ferries a day. Algecieras/ Tarifa ferry one left every 45 mins. Not the crossings you are looking for but might give you an indication.
Cheers, did you book in advance or just tip up?

Tell the ticket 'fixers' to foxtrot oscar, and ride into the port itself. There are 'official' ticket desks adjacent to the parking area to the boat. Number of different windows / agencies, so worth asking around. We got quotes from 80-110 Euros per person for the quick crossing... just a question of asking at each window...
aye just park up outside the office in span, one of you go in and get sorted at the glass window on the right hand sidE
took me ten minutes, just turned up and was on ferry within the hour.
coming back however, took 8 hours for the ferry to arrive from when it should have... camp was set up on the dock and the pots were cooking - the locals looked fascinated by my super noodles and cupasoups!

Thats why it's best not to get a return ticket. Just arrive in ceuta and get a ticket on the next ferry thats departing.
And if you do have a return and your company is delayed by a rediculous amount of time on the return leg get on the next available ferry and when you land in algerciras get a refund on your return ticket from the office you bought your ticket from
Not many people know that unused tickets are refundable. Another reason not to buy a ticket from the caravans in spain unroute to the port, because they closed most of the time and if it is open will feck you around giving a refund.
