Its location within the natural port of Alfacs (about 60 square kilometers) makes it surrounded by natural land on three sides.

To the west is solid ground; to the north, there is the Ebro delta; and, to the east, there is the Trabucador bar and the tip of the Horn. This arm constitutes an immense amount of sand that protects the ports from any wind.
