Tarifa/Algeciras to Seville

We are arriving by ferry from Tangiers to Tarifa.

1. How long is the ferry ride between the two ports?

2. Anything we need to be aware of in making this border crossing?

3. We want to go to Seville from the port? We are with a child. What is the best and most convenient way to arrange this? We were thinking on getting a cab or arranging a private car from the port to Seville? Any suggestions on how to do this?

Thanks in advance.

The ferry ride from Tangier to Tarifa is 35 minutes, but relly only under the best of circumstances. You need to give yourself up to an hour, possibly more if the weather is bad.

Very straitforward crossing into Spain.

The company, FRS, will have a free shuttle waiting to take you to the port in Algeciras, where you can wait for the next LINESUR bus that goes directly to Prado San Sebastian station in Seville. Or you can rent a car.

It has been awhile since I made that drive but I think it was about 3.5 hours.
