Useful Information
Port of Bilbao
Bilbao is the thriving financial capital of Spain's
Basque country, an ideal jumping-off point for
a host of destinations in Northern Spain, Southwest
France and also Portugal. The port of Bilbao
is one of Spain's busiest seaports, and provides
frequent sailings to Portsmouth in the south
of England.
The ferries don't actually dock in the centre
of Bilbao, but at a local port about 15 miles
away. The company runs coach trips to Bilbao
and to a local fishing village, and in the summer
they also provide links to the Guggenheim museum
in Bilbao.
