Managed by the Port System Authority of the Central-Northern Tyrrhenian Sea alongside Civitavecchia and Fiumicino, Gaeta is a bulk and breakbulk port on Italy's Lazio coast rather than a container gateway. Its cargo mix centres on solid bulk — cereals, coal, fertilisers, metallurgical goods and cellulose — handled and stored at the Salvo D'Acquisto quay, complemented by a liquid-bulk jetty for petroleum and chemical products. Throughput reached about 1.79 million tonnes in 2024, a modest decline on the prior year. Concessionaire Interminal is pursuing a roughly 40 million euro expansion for bulk, wood biomass, cement and raw materials for the ceramics and glass industries. Hinterland access runs mainly by road toward Formia and the A1 motorway, with no significant rail link at the quay. Shippers needing container services or scheduled international lines should route through Naples or Civitavecchia, with Gioia Tauro serving regional transshipment.
