=== Ferry to Spain (Port Tanger Med) ===
The new port, Tanger Med, is situated some 40 km east of the city.
Ferries to Spain (Algeciras) several times a day. When you get to the terminal, ask for a boarding card from one of the booths and fill it. Then waltz to the X-ray and someone probably asks for your ticket. Explain that you are a hitchhiker and that the trucks are allowed to have one passenger apart from the driver. Be prepared for lengthy conversation though. Smile.
Once you are done with the formalities a minibus will take you to down to the port. Moroccan drivers are your best choice. Just convince them that you don't have drugs with you (Arabic sign "I have no drugs" makes them smile). Explain that all they have to do is to take you into the ferry and in Spain you will walk out of the ferry by yourself.
It might take a while but eventually you will get a ride to the ferry. Then you just go and have a nice meal with the driver.
Just before reaching Algeciras you should try to hitch a ride out of the port (otherwise be prepared for a long walk).
