After a short break in Sevilla I rode to Algeciras which is where you get the ferry to Ceuta a Spanish exclave in Morocco. I was informed by another bike rider that this was the easiest way to enter Morocco as opposed to getting a ferry direct to Tangier.
Gibraltar is located opposite Algeciras across the Bay of Gibraltar about a 30 min ride. The Rock as it is known is under British rule, the currency is the pound and they have their own distinctive notes but they drive on the right.
