Getting There By Water

International ferries from Izmir (Turkey), Tangiers (Morocco) and Valetta (Malta) serve Tripoli’s ferry terminal, however services are infrequent and unpredictable. For current service information, check with the General National Maritime Transport Company at Sharia Mohammed Megharief (tel: (021) 333 3155). Those travelling from western Europe can take a ferry from Marseille to Tunis Port with SNCM Ferries (tel: +33 (0)891 701 801; website: www.sncm.fr), or from Genoa to Tunis Port with SNCM Ferries or Grandi Navi Veloci Ferries (tel: +39 010 209 4591; website: http://www1.gnv.it), and drive to the Ras Ajdir border from there, before connecting to Libya’s National Coast Road.
