Document requirements aren't the same on every route, so it's worth confirming what you'll need before you travel. A valid passport is generally required for the Alicante to Algiers crossing, alongside any visas or national ID your nationality calls for.

Booking is straightforward: enter your departure and arrival ports along with your travel date to pull up every available sailing and fare. You can also browse alternative routes and departure times to find the option that works best for you.
Keep an eye out for early-booking savings and flexible ticket types, including upgrades or flexi-fares that let you amend or cancel later on. For a hassle-free booking, double-check the details you enter, such as passenger numbers and any vehicle specifications.
As soon as your booking is confirmed, you'll get a confirmation email. Exactly how your boarding pass is issued after that depends on which operator you've booked with.
Some operators send your boarding pass out the moment you book, while others require check-in at the port itself. Where it's offered, online check-in is also available through the Direct Ferries app, saving you a step at the terminal.
You'll typically find the ticket desk close to the ferry terminal itself. It's a good idea to arrive a little early so you have plenty of time to collect your tickets and get checked in without rushing.
At check-in, have your confirmation email ready along with valid photo ID, such as a passport or identity card. If you're travelling with a pet, bring along their vaccination and insurance paperwork, and if you booked using a resident discount, be prepared to show proof of address too.
A few things can explain a lack of sailings on your chosen date: a temporary schedule change, limited space, or a seasonal shift in the timetable are the most common. It's worth trying a nearby date or exploring alternative routes using our Route & Port finder.
As a rule, the earlier you book your Alicante to Algiers ferry, the better. Booking ahead tends to secure lower fares along with a wider pick of departure times and cabin or seating options.

Alicante is a city and port on the Costa Blanca, Spain. The city is the capital of the province of the same name and is located in the southern part of the Valencian community. Alicante is one of the main tourist destinations on the south eastern Spanish coast with the beautiful harbour city lying on the tranquil waters of the Mediterranean Sea.
This holiday hotspot contains stretches of sandy beaches and is the ideal place for sunbathing and sporting activities alike. The Spanish south east coast is a golfer’s paradise and Alicante is no exception, with a number of fantastic courses to choose from.
Barrio de la Santa Cruz, Alicante’s old town, is where you’ll find narrow streets, colourful housing and a bustling nightlife. At the foot of the 13th Century Castillo de Santa Barbara, which overlooks the city, you’ll find the historic quarter of the city where you can explore the beautiful architecture whilst treading the cobbled stoned streets. The Medieval castle itself is the perfect place to view the Mediterranean Sea with its lofty position at the top of Mount Benacantil.
The ferry terminal is found in the west section of the marina with straightforward access to the port for its passengers. The road networks make Alicante easily accessible with the A-31 linking the city with Madrid and the A-7 Highway connecting to other cities along the Mediterranean coastline. Elche/Alicante International Airport is less than a twenty minute drive from the terminal and the railway station is within walking distance.
From Alicante you can travel to three different Algerian ports. There are sailings every week to the Algerian capital Algiers, the north western port city of Mostaganem and the North African country’s second largest city, Oran.
