besides this one, there are far more ferries-and as they are not the staetowned trasmediterranea, may even be cheaper too and land you still in TGR town.
The cheapest ferry-as its domestic Spain-runs Alg-CEUTA-a SP enclave-ev 30 mins. In CE take citybus to border and then its Morocco=Maghreb-find your own way.
NOte that even a simple passage on the ferry-as most are now hi-speed-can be quite costly-like 30-40 eur with hardly any discount-the same as a smartly booked flight on EZ from MAD to further away in MA. In MA do not believe that its all train-it is not and the whole country is crisscrossed by a very dense busnetwork-with no online info-perhaps to shreek off the newbies of today who seem to believe this is soooooooo 20th century.
A nice town nearby Ceuta/TGR-and not on the rails-to while away a few days is Chefchouen-anyone just says Chouen. By now that famed Marrakesh is so overwhelmed with tourists and hype that you might just as well go to a human zoo.
