IMF connection network based on vessel capacity before and after calling at this port (AIS 2019-2025). The time shown is the average elapsed between the call at one port and the next call at the other — it includes anchorage and berthing waits, which is why it far exceeds pure sailing time on short routes such as Algeciras–Tanger Med.
