Ferry Almeria – Melilla

The boat from Almeria to Melilla connects Spain with the Moroccan coast. Melilla is a Spanish area bordering Morocco. It is possible to cross the border from here to Morocco, but if you do not want to run the risk that the border is (temporarily) closed, you can choose the route Almeria – Nador. This route arrives at the same port, but Nador is located in Morocco, so you don't have to cross the border.

The Almeria-Melilla ferry is operated by the ferry company Balearia and Naviera Armas. This route takes you about 6 hours.
