Puerto de Burriana, Castellon de la Plana, Valencia, Spain

General - Puerto de Burriana is a small artificial harbour on the E coast of Spain. It is used by fishing craft and yachts and there is a small ship breaking yard. The approach is easy but the entrance requires care due to silting. Strong winds and swell from E - SW make the entrance difficult. There is good shelter once inside.
