Founded in 1863 to administer the canal, it remains the seat of the Suez Canal Authority; with only around 1.8 m alongside, it handles no significant seaborne cargo. Shippers in the canal corridor use Port Said to the north, or Adabiya and Ain Sokhna to the south.","url":"https://www.freight-academy.com/en/information/seaports/el-ismailiya-port-eg-ism","markdownMirror":"https://www.freight-academy.com/api/md/seaports/en/el-ismailiya-port-eg-ism","source":null,"provider":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Freight Academy","url":"https://www.freight-academy.com"},"quickSummary":"El Ismailiya · (UN/LOCODE: EG ISM) · Egypt · Small · 18.6 m"}
