During the Algeciras Tangier crossing, whether you are on deck, dining in the restaurant or relaxing in the comfortable lounges of the Naviera Armas, AML, Inter Shipping, Baleària, Acciona Trasmediterránea or FRS Iberia ship, you will simply have a front row seat to the incredible spectacle that the sea offers. Restaurant, bars, lounges, cabins,... the magnificent views of the sea are omnipresent on board the ship.
For the comfort of a cabin
