From Tangier Cruise Port
Café Hafa
Mint tea above the Strait — a Tangier institution since the 1920s.
Distance
Beyond central Medina — walk from Kasbah area
Travel time
Roughly 15–20 minutes from Kasbah viewpoints
Time needed
45–75 minutes including tea
Café Hafa's terrace tables look out over the water toward Spain. The view is the reward; service is unhurried by design.
Allow extra walking time from the Kasbah — do not visit if your ship buffer is tight.
Pair with a Medina morning rather than treating it as a rushed add-on.

Can I fit Café Hafa on a short call?▼
Only if you keep the Medina loop disciplined. On tight calls, prioritise Grand Socco and the Kasbah.
