Port of Kanazawa

Kanazawa combines the movement of everyday supplies with logistics for the surrounding machinery industry. Built around the outlets of the Ono and Sai rivers, its harbour serves both commercial cargo and passenger arrivals on the Sea of Japan coast.

Different quays accommodate container, oil and other cargo operations, while the cruise terminal provides a separate arrival point for visitors. The port’s trading role includes goods such as food, clothing and fuel, alongside the requirements of regional manufacturers.

Cruise passengers use Kanazawa as a gateway to the city’s gardens, historic districts and craft traditions. The waterfront also functions as a public destination, bringing leisure activity and tourism into a port whose underlying commercial role is the supply and export needs of its surrounding economy.
