The Port of Algeciras has closed the January-February 2026 period with an activity of 14.1 million tons, a figure that represents a decrease of 14% compared to the start of last year. As already mentioned by the APBA, the effect of the storm train that lasted between January 21 and February 13 was going to impact the February statistics, a month that closed with movements practically identical to those of January.
Liquid bulk accumulates 3.6 million tons, with a decrease of 23.8%. Solid bulk records 34,688 tons, a decrease of 50.6%, while general cargo totals 9.5 million tons, 9.8% less than in the same period of 2025. Fuel supply to ships accumulates 427,767 tons of product, 13% below the start of the previous year. The discharge of fresh fish, with the fleet moored for half the period, stands at 109 tons, 45.3% less.
Container traffic moved in the terminals is the positive note in a scenario marked by declines, as it remains at the same levels as last year with 690,733 TEUs, representing a virtually negligible variation of -0.1%.
The Strait traffic has been the most affected by the meteorological episode. In the first 59 days of the year, more than 102,000 people and 21,000 vehicles have stopped traveling by boat, representing declines of 14% and 13% respectively, with 500 fewer ferry and fast-ferry rotations than the previous year.
