Port of Zarubino, Commercial port in Trinity Bay, Russia
The Port of Zarubino is a commercial harbor in Trinity Bay on Russia's southwestern coast near the borders of China and North Korea. The facility features deep-water channels and can handle various vessel sizes throughout the year without seasonal freezing.
The facility began as a fishing port in 1972 and transformed into the Khasan Sea Commercial Port by 1992. This shift reflected growing regional trade importance and infrastructure development.
The port functions as a connection point between Russian, Chinese, and Korean maritime trade routes through its position in the northwestern Sea of Japan.
The harbor remains navigable year-round without ice interference affecting operations. Visitors should contact local authorities to learn about access rules and whether guided tours of the facility are available.
The facility processes 750,000 tons of cargo annually, including timber, metal, and fishing products, while planning expansion to handle 60 million tons yearly.
