Best Answer

Switzerland has a port: Basel. This is a port on the river Rhine and handles a large proportion of Switzerland's imports and exports. From Basel, ships run to and from the mouth of the Rhine at Rotterdam, and many other river ports in Europe.

The nearest sea port in a straight line is Genoa on the Mediterranean.

Switzerland has a port, it is Basel.

Basel is a river port and is on the river Rhine. The Rhine connects Switzerland to the sea via its mouth at Rotterdam. The nearest sea port to Switzerland is Genoa, but there is no river connection, only road and rail.
