The best option is to take a ferry from Algeciras or Tarifa, being the port of Algeciras with its connection to the port of Tanger Med, the fastest and cheapest option of all.
There are other options such as travelling from Barcelona, Genova or other cities by ferry to the port of Tangier Med, this option is used by many people from Central Europe, as it is economical and quite fast and relaxed.
It is essential to present the green card of the international insurance of the vehicle and in case the vehicle is not in your name a document where it is reflected that you are authorized by the owner to travel to Morocco with this vehicle.
Once you have crossed customs the motorway is at the exit of the port and from there you should start your journey towards Rabat-Casablanca-el Jadida-Safi. Once you reach the end of the motorway in Safi, there are about 100 km along the coast road to Moulay.
In our experience this is the safest and quickest way to get to Moulay, as well as less traffic.
Remember that if you are travelling with pets this can be a big problem at the Spanish border on your return, so we recommend that you inform yourself about the current legislation.
We do not recommend travelling with pets because of the problems at Spanish customs.
Other useful details:
