Acciona Trasmediterranea

Acciona Trasmediterranea is the leading ship owner for both freight and passenger services linking the Spanish Peninsula with the Balearic Islands, the Canary Islands and the Spanish North African enclaves of Ceuta and Melilla.

Acciona Trasmediterranea was founded in 1917 in Barcelona with a fleet of 45 ships. It became state owned in 1978, and launched high speed services in the Canary Islands in 1980, before being privatised in 2002. Their market continues to expand with international ferries to Tanger in Morocco and Oran in Algeria en France. As well as being very fast, the Acciona Trasmediterránea Ferries are equipped to offer the height of comfort, designed so that the passenger finds the journey a great part of his/her holiday.

AT Ferries, which was a part of the Acciona Trasmediterranea group, operated a ferry service between Portsmouth and the ferry port of Bilbao in Spain. The ferry service was established in May 2006. Due to continuing operational reasons that could not be solved in the medium term, Acciona Trasmediterranea cancelled all scheduled sailings between Portsmouth and Bilbao in 2007. You can book a ferry from Portsmouth to Bilbao with Aferry.com with Brittany Ferries.
