Tripoli - Getting There By Water

The ferry services between Tripoli and Europe are infrequent and unpredictable. A car ferry operated by the Libyan government shipping line, General National Maritime Transport Company (GNMTC) (tel: (021) 333 3155), usually has sailings from Tripoli to Malta and on to several Italian ports. Italian lines Grimaldi (website: www.grimaldi-ferries.com) and Grandi Navi Veloci Ferries (tel: 00 39 010 209 4591 (in Italy); website: www1.gnv.it) run services from several Italian ports to Tunis, and SNCM Ferries (tel: 00 33 891 701 801 (in France); website: www.sncm.fr) sails from Marseille to Tunis Port. From there drive to the Ras al-Jadir border, before connecting with Libya's National Coast Road.
