About This Seaport
General cargo, coal, lumber, vehicles and dry bulk make up the working cargo mix at Tsuruga, one of the three principal ports on Japan's Sea of Japan coast. Its multi-purpose International Terminal offers 14 metres of water depth and runs an approximately three-weekly container service to Busan, South Korea's largest port and a transhipment hub for overseas trades. Domestic traffic dominates, however: RoRo and ferry lines connect Tsuruga with Tomakomai on Hokkaido as well as Niigata and Akita, and since 2019 with Hakata on Kyushu. Road and rail tie the Fukui-prefecture site to the industrial belt around Lake Biwa and the Osaka–Kyoto region, making it a useful relief option to the congested Pacific coast. For high-frequency deep-sea container services, though, the major Pacific gateways of Kobe, Osaka and Nagoya remain decisive.
