Tangier

Tangier port stands apart as the welcoming gateway to a city where myth meets modern Morocco. Overlooking the Straits of Gibraltar, the port’s sheltered harbor and contemporary terminal welcome a wide range of vessels—from mid-sized cruise ships to grand liners—with smooth embarkation and swift shore-side processing that gets guests ashore quickly. The experience begins the moment guests step into Tangier’s medina, where ancient Kasbah walls frame panoramic sea views and elegant squares give way to vibrant markets. Signature experiences unfold in easy reach: a short ride to Cape Spartel for dramatic cliff-top vistas, a visit to the legendary Hercules Cave, and guided strolls through the old fortress city to taste mint tea, spices, and Berber crafts. Excursions extend to the Atlantic coast towns such as Asilah or inland routes into the Rif hills for a deeper dive into Moroccan rhythms and crafts. The port’s shore-side amenities—duty-free shops, private lounges, and culturally themed eateries—pair with onboard services aboard ships that emphasize comfort and immersion: curated culinary experiences, live performances, and artisan workshops that bring Moroccan culture to life. Tangier’s dramatic geography, rich history, and effortless access to both old-world charm and contemporary Moroccan culture make it a standout port of call in western Mediterranean and Atlantic itineraries.
