Getxo Marina
Getxo Marina
Just 16 kilometres from Bilbao and 14 kilometres from Loiu International Airport, beside the entrance to Bilbao, stands El Abra-Getxo Marina. This marina, opened in 1997, was created to be the leading marina in the Basque Country, offering the best facilities and services for leisure sailing and for vessels in transit to other destinations
Furthermore, it has a leisure and shopping area for entertainment, full of commercial, restaurant and catering establishments. This is also the location of Getxo Zinemak. This is a 6-screen cinema complex, two of which are fitted with the required technology to show films in 3D, where you can enjoy the best billboard premiers.
The Getxo Marina facilities are rounded up with a technical zone with all the supplies and accessories necessary for practising water sports and a dry dock measuring over 9,000 m2.
