    The floodgates serve to let the ships into the two harbor basins.
    Next to it is a dam, which can be overflowed by water at high tide. Thus, the basins are refilled again and again - regardless of the inflow of Quinic.
    A piece of the first lock is exhibited in front of the Maritime Museum.

    Without the locks, the port would be empty of water at low tide with a tidal range of usually between 8 and 10 meters.
