More than just bunkering

Besides these bunkering facilities, the port has excellent resources for crew changes, supplies and spare parts. This is because there are four airports within 75 minutes of the port, offering international connections for passengers and goods. Malaga airport, the biggest of the four, also offers customs services that operate seven days a week.
