History and description

The foundation stone was laid on 21 October 1908. Building works ended in 1927. A bulk cargo dock was opened in 1994.

On 1 October 2005, the standalone Port Authority of Motril was created, upon a split from the Port Authority of Almería. Two years later, the expansion of the Azucenas dock was inaugurated, featuring ro-ro capabilities.

It is connected by ferry to Nador, Melilla, Al-Hoceima and Tanger-Med.

The port closed its 2019 year with a total cargo traffic of 2.8 million tonnes.
