Tarifa: ferries, timetables and prices
Tarifa, on Spain’s southern tip, is the closest European port to Morocco and the main gateway for fast ferries to Tanger Ville (Tangier City). The crossing usually takes around 1 hour and runs several times per day, making it ideal for short trips, weekends and combined Spain–Morocco holidays. Many passengers travel on foot, but you can also board with a car, van, motorbike or bicycle. On TheBato you can compare companies, timetables and prices in one search, add your vehicle and choose your seats, with support in English, Spanish, French and Arabic/Riffian.
