The Port of Bayonne is in a privileged location. Equidistant between the ports of Bordeaux and Bilbao, and at the intersection of two motorways (north/south and east/west), it is also directly linked to the European railway network. In late 2015, a local railway operator (OFP SUD-OUEST) consolidated the port’s multimodal services.
The Port of Bayonne has 56.6 hectares of available land at its 3 terminals.
