Bilbao City

Bilbao is a city that is undergoing continues transformation process and it is the financial center of the Basque Country. Bilbao, strategically situated on the Bay of Biscay, is located in the middle of the Atlantic Arc, to the west of the Pyrenees, on the north coast of Spain and only one hour by car from the French border. Its metropolitan area groups together a population of one million inhabitants, although if we consider its hinterland within a radius of 400 km, the population is increased up to 16 million people.

The capital of Biscay, Bilbao, has a very good communications network by air, land and sea, enabling it to meet the travel requirements and preferences of its visitors. Several airlines operate regular services between Bilbao and the most important European capitals, and it is also connected to the European railway and road networks. Moreover, the Port of Bilbao has a regular ferry link with the United Kingdom and is an occasional call for many Atlantic cruises.
