About This Seaport
Around 150,000 TEU and roughly 500,000 tonnes of bulk pass through Hososhima each year, handled across some 1,200 metres of quay on the eastern coast of Kyushu. Designated a special major port in 1951 and opened to traffic in 1964, the harbour at Hyuga in Miyazaki Prefecture splits into a commercial and an industrial section, exporting mainly industrial materials and finished products from the region. Regular feeder services from Heung-A, Sinokor, Kambara and King Ocean connect it to container networks across East Asia. Specialised berths cover container, dry-bulk and general-cargo operations, with around 200 vessel calls a year. Road and rail links carry freight inland toward Miyazaki and northern Kyushu. For forwarders, Hososhima works as a regional feeder gateway, while deep-sea direct calls typically route via Kobe or Hakata.
