Bay of Biscay: general information
Bay of Biscay is a part of the Atlantic Ocean located north of the Iberian Peninsula, washing the shores of Spain and France and stretching from Galicia to Brittany.
The bay has a wide continental shelf, abruptly merging into the Biscay deep-water plain with depths of up to 4500 meters. The rocky, but low coast of Brittany to the south changes to the coastal plain of the Silver Coast, after which the mountainous Basque coast begins, and then the Cantabrian Mountains approach the Bay of Biscay. The climatic conditions in the bay are not the same. So, in the north it is cool (the water temperature is up to 12 ° in summer), but in the south the waters warm up to 22 °. There are frequent strong winds and storms, which sometimes do not subside for 10-12 days. The islands are located mainly off the coast of France (Belle-Ile, Noirmoutier, Re, Olero). The largest rivers of the Gulf flow here: Loire, Garonne, Dordogne, Adour.
