About This Seaport
Frozen barramundi, crayfish and crocodile skins are what leave Daru for export markets, processed at plants on this Western Province island near the mouth of the Fly River. The provincial capital's port is a modest affair: a 100 m causeway with two ramps and a 30 m jetty, accepting vessels up to roughly 60 m in length and 2 m draught. With no wharf cranes, containers are unpacked on board across the ramp and forklifts handle distribution of general and breakbulk cargo. Operated by PNG Ports Corporation, it functions as a regional supply point rather than a commercial shipping port. Containerised mainline cargo and larger vessels move through Port Moresby or Lae, the country's main cargo gateway.
