The Port of Algiers faces the Mediterranean Sea in the centre of the Algerian coast. The city itself is nicknamed ‘Alger la Blanch’ (Algiers the White), due to the large number of glistening white buildings rising up from the sea. There is plenty for you to enjoy whilst you wait for your ferry. There's a fascinating 17th Century Kasbah by the terminal, which was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1992. There are also several museums, most notably the Bardo. It houses a comprehensive selection of Algerian artefacts including costumes, jewellery and weaponry. The port is a short walk from Algiers train station and is found just off the N11, Rue d’Angkor.
Barcelona ferry port has a 2000 year history and today is still one of the biggest European ports. It serves as gateway to the Balearic Islands of Mallorca, Menorca, Ibiza and Formentera with numerous ferry company's involved in making the connections, offering numerous departures per day. You can also travel to the Mediterranean island of Sardinia from Barcelona as well as Morocco, with departures to Tangier Med. The most famous touristic places (Park Güell, Las Ramblas, The Sagrada Familia) are really close to the port both on foot and by public transportation.
