Listing Vostochny as a 'very small' harbour is plainly wrong, and the size has been corrected to Large: this is one of the most important cargo gateways in the Russian Far East. Set in Wrangel Bay near Nakhodka in Primorsky Krai, on the Sea of Japan, it is a deep-water, ice-free Pacific port and the eastern terminus of the Trans-Siberian Railway. Two businesses dominate. JSC Vostochny Port runs one of Russia's largest, highly automated coal-export terminals using conveyor handling, while Vostochnaya Stevedoring Company (part of Global Ports) operates the Far East's largest container terminal, which handled about 547,000 TEU in 2024. Pier depths of around 16.5 m and channel depths up to 22 m accommodate large bulk carriers and container ships. Direct rail access ties the port to the Siberian hinterland and inland terminals along the Trans-Siberian line. Its main trade flows run to China, Japan and South Korea, in both coal exports and container traffic. For forwarders, Vostochny is a full-scale gateway for bulk and boxes on the Pacific, with Vladivostok (VMTP) and neighbouring Nakhodka as alternative container options.
