How far in advance can I book
I'm currently arranging a trip to morocco in June next year (I know about how hot it will be) and I want to look into booking ferries.
When do ferreis from Algericas to Ceuta come on sale so I can book the ferry??
Is it notably cheaper to book in advance or might aswell turn up on the day??
Advice please??

I think booking 8 months in advance is going a bit far.
I would not bother booking at all, especially if you're on a bike, they run every half hour or so.
Turn up early or late in the day and you'll get straight on, I'm sure.
You may find the new Tangiers Med port less hassle.

For ferry tickets Algeciras-Ceuta-Algeciras:
Currently de lowest price I've found, cheaper than the agency to which I've been buying the ferry tickets for the last years, Club Camaleon 4x4, Marruecos el Imperio de las sensaciones (220 € for a little truck/lorry and 2 p with back open, with Balearia), is given right now for this one http://www.viajesnormandie.net/situa...algeciras.htm; the other day I phoned them and they told me that currently the price for a little truck/lorry and 2 p with back open, with any ferry company is 180 €.
They say this will be the same price for the week hollyday in april (15-24) but will rise up to 250-300 € in summer, but stil a good price.
