Port of Tokuyama-Kudamatsu, Commercial port in Shūnan, Japan.
The Port of Tokuyama-Kudamatsu is a commercial harbor located along the Seto Inland Sea coast in Yamaguchi Prefecture. The facility spans multiple terminals and receives protection from the offshore islands of Kasado and Ozu.
The port was developed during Japan's post-war industrial expansion and has served as a major hub for raw material imports. The facility grew alongside the country's energy demands and manufacturing requirements.
The port area hosts the Inaho Festival, which features a traditional wedding procession where participants dress in fox costumes according to regional customs.
The port is accessible from surrounding cities by public transportation. Visitors can view the harbor from certain vantage points or participate in tours to learn about port operations.
Nearby Ozu Island contains a memorial museum dedicated to a naval base from the Second World War. The museum preserves artifacts from a little-known chapter of Japanese naval history.
