About This Seaport
A ferry line to Oran and a growing cruise business set the tone at Alicante, a mid-sized Costa Blanca port on Spain's Mediterranean coast that handled about 3.1 million tonnes of cargo in 2024. Its container terminal offers two berths and around 515 metres of quay, but a maximum depth near 14 metres keeps post-Panamax ships out and holds box volumes low — recently under 20,000 TEU a year. General and bulk cargo round out the traffic alongside passenger services. An express container train and rail terminal link the port to its hinterland toward Madrid and the industrial zones along the Vinalopó river. As an EU port, import clearance is straightforward, yet forwarders route mainline container volumes through Valencia, with Cartagena covering bulk and energy flows.
