Algeciras is a port city in the south of Spain, near the British Overseas Territory of Gibraltar. It is situated on the Río de la Miel slightly to the north of Tarifa, which is the southernmost town of the Iberian peninsula. It is the largest urban area on the Bay of Gibraltar (in Spanish, the Bahía de Algeciras), with a population in 2007 of 112.937 people.

Algeciras is principally a transport hub and industrial city. Its principal activities are connected with the port, which serves as the main embarkation point between Spain and Tangier and other ports in Morocco as well as the Canary Islands and the Spanish enclaves of Ceuta and Melilla. It is ranked as the 16th busiest port in the world. The city also has a substantial fishing industry and exports a range of agricultural products from the surrounding area, including cereals, tobacco and farm animals.
