It lacks a modern container or bulk terminal, and its quay depths are not geared to commercial shipping. For routine import and export in northern Mozambique, the deep-water port of Nacala, about 28 nautical miles to the north, is the relevant gateway. Forwarders therefore route shipments via Nacala, or alternatively Pemba.","url":"https://www.freight-academy.com/en/information/seaports/mocambique-port-mz-mzq","markdownMirror":"https://www.freight-academy.com/api/md/seaports/en/mocambique-port-mz-mzq","source":null,"provider":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Freight Academy","url":"https://www.freight-academy.com"},"quickSummary":"Mocambique · (UN/LOCODE: MZ MZQ) · Mozambique · Small · 7.9 m"}
