Regulations

The features of the access channel to the Port of Pasajes imply limitations in the size of ships that may sail/manoeuvre in the port area.

These limitations are mainly based on recomendations issued by the Pilotage
Association and regulated by means of rules issued by the relevant authorities.

This selective system establishes some limitations based on length, draft and tidal periods as well as on the handling features of ships. This system, over the years, has proven to be well adapted to the conditions of the port and is easy to understand, apply and check by the authorities, users and services.
