⚓ The main ports:

One of the most important ports in Morocco is Tangier Med, now considered the most important port in the Mediterranean and the most important port in Africa. 

Its unique location, right on the Strait of Gibraltar, has made the Port of Tangier unique and in a short time it has earned its position as one of the most significant and largest ports in the Mediterranean and the most influential in Morocco.

It offers connections to many countries in Europe, such as Spain with Barcelona and Algeciras. In France, with the ports of Sete and Marseille, and in Italy, with the ports of Genoa and Civitavecchia.

The port of Nador, on the north-eastern coast of Morocco, is the second-largest port in the country after Tangiers and plays a significant commercial role, offering sea connections to Almeria in Spain and Sete in France.

The third port in Morocco is the port of Al Hoceima, approximately 3 hours from Tangier. The port offers connections to the city of Motril in Spain.

Other departures to Europe are from ports such as Ceuta and the Spanish enclave of Melilla to countries such as Algeciras and Malaga.
