Colombo port, Sri Lanka’s largest seaport, is located at the mouth of the Kelani Ganga river on the southwest shore of the island nation. It is one of the busiest container ports and one of the top 25 ports in the globe. Near the port that exports sawn wood, rubber, machinery, textiles, and manufactured goods like jewelry, glass, textiles, furniture, and leather goods as well as gets regular shipments of crude oil, machinery, iron, and steel are factories that process raw materials for export.
The southern region of Sri Lanka is home to Hambantota Port, also referred to as the Magampura Mahinda Rajapaksha Port. It is near to the Suez Canal, the Malacca Strait, and the maritime trade routes between Asia and Europe. The second phase of development includes the construction of a multipurpose port, a container terminal, a dockyard, a factory producing fertilizer, warehouse facilities, and transshipment centers.
The earliest port in Sri Lanka is located in Galle, which is on the country’s southwest coast. It has a 320-hectare natural harbor area that serves commercial ships and cruise ships traveling on the east-west commerce route. Due to the shallow water, it is difficult to accommodate large ships, which reduces cargo traffic. It is the only site in Sri Lanka with berthing capabilities for pleasure yachts, but it is still a significant regional port. International yacht organizations have named Galle Harbor as one of the top places to take a yacht.
