Sagunto

The Port of Sagunto is located on Spain’s Mediterranean sea coast, about 25km north of Valencia. Although traditionally the port has specialised in the traffic of iron and steel products, it has become multi-purpose, opening up to new traffic such as natural gas, vehicles, containers and solid bulk. It is managed by Autoridad Portuaria de València (APV – Valenciaport, Port Authority of Valencia).
