About This Seaport
On the Sea of Japan coast in northern Kyoto Prefecture, Maizuru occupies a sheltered natural harbour well protected from open-sea weather. It works as a regional multi-purpose port with an international container terminal sized for vessels in the 50,000-tonne class. Liner services run twice weekly to Busan and once weekly to Kobe, while a high-speed ferry reaches Otaru on Hokkaido in about 20 hours. Four main lanes shape its traffic: routes to China, Korea and Russia, plus the Kansai-to-Hokkaido link, giving the port a clear role on Japan's Sea of Japan side away from the busier Pacific gateways. For large container volumes, wide liner coverage and reefer capacity, Kobe and Osaka remain first choice, with nearby Tsuruga complementing Sea of Japan trades. Road and rail tie the port into the Kyoto and wider Kansai hinterland.
