Gibraltar ferry port provides sailings to Morocco serving the biggest port of North Africa, Tangier Med. In 2009 it was decided to launch a ferry service between Gibraltar and Algeciras, the first time in 40 years the cities on either side of the Bay of Gibraltar where linked by sea. The name Gibraltar refers to the famous rock and comes from the Arabic translation of Jebel Tariq (Mountain of Tariq). Before, it was also known as a pillar of Hercules.
The Moroccan port of Tangier Med is located around 40 kilometres east of Tangier ville and is one of the biggest ferry ports in Africa. Tangier Med connects Morocco with the South and east Mediterranean coast of Spain, the south of France and the northern Italian coast. When it launched in 2007, almost all of the ferry services were transferred from the existing port in Tangier Ville to the new facility at Tangier Med. Geographically closer to the ferry ports it connects to than the port at Tangier ville, Tangier Med is also well connected to the national motorway network. As a relatively new and therefore modern port, it is well equipped to receive both tourist and commercial traffic.
