Savona is a seaport and comune of the province of Savona in the northern Italian region of Liguria in the Riviera di Ponente on the Mediterranean Sea. Savona has a long and fairly brutal past, in part due to its proximity to Genoa which has ensured a continual rivalry between the two cities. It also suffered heavy bombing in World War II and today’s Savona is the result of significant rebuilding. However despite all of this, the city is now one of Italy’s largest ports and exports many products to both the UK and the US, including amongst other things, Italian cars. If you move away from the port you will find much of the medieval centre still remains. The main focus is on the impressive Priamàr fortress. This vast stronghold overlooks the sea and was built in the 16th century by the Genoese. Today you will find that it is also home to a number of museums, an art gallery and even a hostel.
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.
