About This Seaport

Run within the Freeport Area of Bataan and overseen by its authority (AFAB), Mariveles is the maritime entrance to a special economic zone on the southern tip of the Bataan Peninsula, at the mouth of Manila Bay. Its traffic is largely industrial: dry bulk, petroleum-product tankers and a substantial shipbuilding and repair sector, including the Seafront shipyard. The Mariveles Multi-Purpose Terminal, with a 250-metre berth, is designed for around 2 million tonnes of bulk cargo a year. Deep berths (quay depth up to about 14 m) and major repair facilities make it attractive to bulk carriers, tankers and yard customers. A dedicated container port is only at the planning stage, so regular container traffic still routes through Manila. For scheduled container services, the Manila terminals (MICT, Manila South Harbor) or Subic are the better options, while Mariveles excels at bulk, tanker and shipbuilding work.
