Any Way to Enter Morocco by Motorcycle?
 

Hey!

Is there any way to enter Morocco by motorcycle? I was planning to depart to Morocco this weekend and only now I realized that the borders between Spain and Morocco are closed (I'm still shocked and can't believe this!!).

Morocco seems to demand a PCR test made 48 hours before border crossing. Well, a ferry from Sète (which is the alternative to enter via France) takes 47 hours apparently which makes it impossible to comply.

There are ferry's to Ceuta from Algeciras, but it seems that the border crossing is closed until 31st of October at least? https://www.elespanol.com/espana/202...4688821_0.html

The covid sticky thread has all the answers.

1 Dont bet on the Spain Ferries anytime soon.
2 Ceuta and Mellilia is the same
3 Ferry from France, vaccination and negative PCR within 48hours of boarding or a negative PCR and 10 days quarantine on arrival
4 Ferry from Italy, proof of vaccination OR negative PCR within 48hours

I suppose it's just about doable to have a test in the UK, get on the road, ride to Sète and board the ferry within 48 hours of the test, in the meantime crossing fingers and toes that the test results come through by email before you get to the ferry.

Here's a direct link to the above-cited discussion: COVID-19 - Morocco Master Thread

That link will take you to page 5 of this long-running discussion... page 5 starts with posts from May 2021 onwards. Not much point in looking at the first 4 pages, all the current information has been posted in the past month or two.

FYI I have taken the ferry from Genoa, Italy to Morocco in past years. It is a long trip (about 2 days) on an unpleasant and expensive ferry. So unless you live really close to Genoa, I suggest you limit your research to taking a ferry out of France to Morocco. Keep in mind that you will probably need to return via the same route (meaning, to France, rather than to Spain), so budget accordingly.
