Port of Merak, Maritime transportation hub in Cilegon, Indonesia
The Port of Merak stretches along the northwestern coast of Java, connecting the islands of Java and Sumatra across the Sunda Strait through ferry services.
The port evolved from a small regional dock into a major transportation center, leading to the development of over 40 petrochemical facilities in the Merak peninsula since 1990.
The port's name originates from the green peafowl that inhabited the region, now preserved in the adjacent Ujung Kulon National Park.
The port operates continuous ferry services to Bakauheni, processing approximately 50,000 passengers and 10,000 vehicles daily through electronic ticketing systems.
The port incorporates an LPG jetty and supports coal barges that supply the local thermal power plant, while maintaining a 12.2-meter draft for large vessels.
