I wonder if anyone can help.

I'm sailing on the new Naviera Armas ferry from Tenerife to Huelva on the mainland next week.

Problem is that I only have 1hr to get from the ferry to the train when I get there, and I can't find any information on the position of the port or the station or bus/taxi services, etc.

Has anyone on the forum used this service?

Do you know how close (or otherwise) the port is to the railway station?

Can anyone tell me how I can make my connection?

Thanks.

Havenīt used it but looking on google map train station looks to be 10-15 mins walk to ferry- see link and explore

The train is not far from the docks area as we walked from one to the other. If you get a taxi you will make it easy and even walking I would think you will be ok.

Thank you for the information. Now I can rest easy and enjoy the voyage. :-)

Incidentally, if anyone else here is heading for the mainland (or, like me, looking for a cheap way back to the UK during peak season) the current residents price for that crossing is on offer at 40€!

So: Total price to the UK on one of the most expensive weeks of the year (when the cheapest flight is about 250€ one-way!): Ferry=40€, Train to Seville=10€, RyanAir from Seville to UK=38€... Total: 88€!!!!!!!

Oh... and you can take more cigarettes! ;-)

Help needed, last night I booked tickets for the ARMAS Ferry from Huelva to Tenerife can anyone help with some info, regarding boarding pass, how do I download them from the website also they require certain documents for passengers. The message I am reading is in Spanish, it reads En el momento del embarque segun el Decreto ley 1316/2001 documento acreditativo de la identidad de la persona cuyo nombre figure en el billete (DNI o PASAPORTE, original y en vigor) Pasajeros con vehiculos es necessario presentar la FICHA TECNICIA. any help would be very much appreciated.
