Port
Characterized by varied and efficient accessibility, Seville has not only become a tourist destination, but also the best equipped port in all of Andalusia. The Guadalquivir River hosts a first class port, the only interior port in Spain. It supports intense traffic from tourist cruises as well as regular commercial shipping lines.
As in the case of many other large cities, Seville’s origins surge from its magnificent location along a great river, the Guadalquivir. This location is the crossing of natural communication routes which connect the interior of Andalusia with the coastal plains and outlets to the ocean.
The Guadalquivir River has always been the true motor of Seville. The primitive Tartessos River, which the Romans called Betis and the Arabs, Wadi al-Kabir (“big river”, original name of the Guadalquivir) begins to flow in the Sierra of Cazorla at 1600 metres and stretches over 590 km through Andalusia to the Atlantic coast. The Guadalquivir has the only river port in all of Spain, located some 80 km from the Atlantic coasta and is very close to the Mediterranean Sea. The surface are of the river is three million square metres.
