About This Seaport
Around 12 million tonnes of coal and roughly 160 vessels pass through Kota Baru each year, making this Pulau Laut port a working bulk and break-bulk gateway rather than a box terminal. Set on the island's northern and eastern shore off South Kalimantan, it handles coal alongside the berth and by lighter at the Tanjung Pemancingan anchorages, supplemented by logs, rattan, rubber and fishery products. The cargo pier is shallow at 4.9 m, so larger bulk carriers load at the nearby deepwater facilities — the North Pulau Laut Coal Terminal (Arutmin) and the Indonesia Bulk Terminal. Containerised cargo is not served here; shippers route boxes through Banjarmasin or Surabaya instead. Hinterland links run via island roads to the South Kalimantan coalfields, with the Makassar Strait carrying inter-island feeder traffic.
