A Coruña
The Port of A Coruña is located in Galicia, Northeast Spain. The port occupies an ideal location for vessels travelling between Northern Europe and the Mediterranean, or to the Americas and Asia from the Atlantic Corridor. Primarily a bulk port and Spain’s main port for fresh fish landings, it has become a leading port for cruise liners on the country’s north Atlantic coast. As well as the new outer port facilities, a new, separate hydrocarbon terminal is also set to be completed by 2020. It comes under the authority of state agency Puertos del Estado. It is managed locally by Autoridad Portuaria de A Coruña.
