Jazan Port

Jazan Port, Saudi Arabia’s third-largest port, serves as the primary entry point for livestock imports from Africa. Opened in 1976, the port is strategically located near the Bab Al Mandab Strait, facilitating trade routes between Europe, the Far East, the Arabian Gulf, and East Africa. With 12 berths and three approach channels, the port ensures safe navigation for vessels. It features passenger terminals at Jazan Port and Farasan Island, catering to both commercial and passenger traffic. The port has undergone significant development, including the construction of additional berths, levees, a control tower, power substations, warehouses, fueling stations, a desalination plant, and administrative and residential facilities.
