Why travel by ferry from Algeciras to Ceuta?

Whether you're travelling alone, as a couple or with the family, a Algeciras to Ceuta ferry can be a convenient and enjoyable option for getting to Ceuta. Here are 3 reasons why we think a ferry from Algeciras to Ceuta is an ideal way to travel.

You get much more rest than in the car
Long car journeys are tiring and require constant vigilance when driving. The Algeciras Ceuta ferry trip is exactly the opposite. On board, depending on the Acciona Trasmediterránea, Baleària, Naviera Armas or FRS Iberia ship in service, everything is designed to give you time to relax in the calm of comfortable reclining lounges, to lounge on the outside decks, to entertain and to have fun. No doubt you'll arrive in Ceuta completely relaxed.
No need to worry about travelling with your bike
Travelling with your bike on a train, plane or bus is often a nightmare because it is so cumbersome to carry. However, on a ferry, you don't have this problem: your bike is loaded directly into the ship's huge garage. You leave it there for the duration of the Algeciras-Ceuta crossing in complete safety and without fear of it being damaged. You will get on your bike in Ceuta to get off the boat.
It's much less boring than on a plane
Generally speaking, to get to Ceuta or anywhere else, the plane is the fastest way. But you are stuck in your seat, strapped in by your seatbelt, and there is almost no opportunity to travel. During the Algeciras Ceuta ferry journey with FRS Iberia, Naviera Armas, Baleària or Acciona Trasmediterránea, there are countless opportunities to enjoy restaurants and bars, or to stroll and sunbathe on a promenade deck... You will never have so much freedom and entertainment during a flight!
