Ports of Ferrol

The port encompasses three distinct operational zones: Puerto Interior, Mugardos, and Puerto Exterior, stretching along the Atlantic coast of northwest Spain.

The port's development as a naval base began in the 16th century when Ferrol became the capital of the Spanish Navy's Maritime Department of the North.

The port's infrastructure includes historic fortifications such as the castles of San Felipe and La Palma, which guard the narrow entrance canal.

The port facilities accommodate vessels with drafts up to 20 meters for bulk carriers and tankers, while providing medical services and fuel supply stations.

The port maintains a substantial graving dock measuring 330 by 51 by 14 meters, capable of servicing vessels up to 230,000 deadweight tons.
