On the right bank of the Uruguay River opposite Paysandú, this small Entre Ríos harbour centres on passenger traffic, thermal-spa tourism and the surrounding citrus and farming belt rather than on confirmed container, customs or breakbulk operations. Exporters in the region move ocean cargo through the nearby commercial port of Concepción del Uruguay, about 45 kilometres downstream.","url":"https://www.freight-academy.com/en/information/seaports/colon-port-ar-col","markdownMirror":"https://www.freight-academy.com/api/md/seaports/en/colon-port-ar-col","source":null,"provider":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Freight Academy","url":"https://www.freight-academy.com"},"quickSummary":"Colon · (UN/LOCODE: AR COL) · Argentina · Very Small · 3.4 m"}
