Here are some useful travel tips for your ferry Gran Canaria - Huelva route:

• The port in Gran Canaria can get quite busy, particularly during the high season, so it’s best to be there 45 min ahead of your departure. If you are traveling with a car, it is recommended to be there at least 1.5 hr before your ferry sets sail.
• As the trip is typically quite long, we recommend booking a cabin for greater privacy and comfort. Alternatively, you can book a numbered airplane-style seat in the business or VIP lounge.
• Depending on the season, the sea can get a bit rough, so if you are prone to seasickness, consider taking motion sickness medication. As always, you can discuss your options with your pharmacist or doctor.
