Check the accommodation available on your sailing.

Use Málaga’s passenger-terminal directions rather than a generic marina address.

Plan the two port connections as part of the same itinerary. For Málaga to Melilla, compare where the ferry leaves and where it arrives, then check your transfer or driving time on each side. If the return journey uses a different mainland or island port, allow for that change when arranging accommodation and onward travel.
