Port Overview

Hopa Port (TRHOP), Turkey

Hopa is a small-sized sheltered seaport at the southeastern end of the Black Sea, approximately 15 km from the Georgian border and about 35 km from Batumi. The port is protected by two breakwaters and is positioned at 41°24′50.40″N, 41°25′58.79″E. Its logistics role is regional rather than hub-scale, supporting general cargo, container-related movements, bulk and project-oriented shipments connected with northeastern Turkey and the eastern Black Sea area. The supplied port record reports approximately 90 vessel calls annually, with recorded vessel limits of up to 145 m length, 6.7 m draught and 12,630 t deadweight. Our service team recommends treating these figures as planning references and confirming berth, cargo acceptance and vessel suitability for every shipment.

Key Highlights

Decision Points for Freight Planning

Protected by two breakwaters, with a comparatively small regional-port operating profile.
Useful for cargo linked to Hopa, Artvin and the eastern Black Sea trading area, subject to inland transport confirmation.
The supplied record identifies pyrites, coal, containers, cotton, copper, grain, minerals and timber among principal cargo categories.
Recorded vessel activity is dominated by fishing vessels, followed by general cargo traffic; liner availability should never be assumed.
Draft, vessel length, cargo type and berth acceptance require case-by-case confirmation before booking.

Facilities & Services

Operational Scope

Marine access: The sheltered harbor is protected by two breakwaters. Vessel acceptance remains subject to current nautical, berth and port-authority instructions.
Cargo profile: The supplied record indicates general cargo, containers and bulk-related commodities. Available handling methods, lifting gear and cargo restrictions must be confirmed for each shipment.
Storage and staging: Yard, warehouse, covered-storage and stuffing or stripping arrangements should be pre-booked where required; capacity and operating conditions may vary by terminal or cargo type.
Customs and inspection: Customs presentation, documentary checks and physical inspection arrangements should be coordinated through the appointed broker before cargo arrival.
Inland connection: Road-based first- and last-mile planning is normally central for this regional port. Vehicle type, loading restrictions, border procedures and delivery access must be checked against the final destination.

Routes & Transit Times

Routing and Schedule Considerations

Typical planning may involve Black Sea feeder, short-sea or regional general-cargo connections, with transshipment options determined by the carrier and cargo characteristics.
Shipments from or to Georgia and the wider Caucasus region may use Hopa as a nearby maritime gateway, but border crossing, customs status and truck availability can materially affect the end-to-end plan.
For container cargo, the actual routing may depend on equipment positioning, carrier acceptance, transshipment port, sailing frequency and whether the shipment is handled as FCL, LCL or breakbulk.
Transit time should be quoted only after confirmation of vessel space, port rotation, cargo readiness, documentation, weather conditions and inland delivery requirements.

Hinterland & Key Cargo

Regional Cargo Logic

Primary hinterland: Hopa and the Artvin area, with potential regional flows toward northeastern Turkey and nearby eastern Black Sea markets.
Cross-border relevance: The proximity to Georgia and Batumi makes border planning important for cargo moving between Turkey, Georgia and the Caucasus.
Recorded cargo categories: Pyrites, coal, containers, cotton, copper, grain, minerals and timber are listed in the supplied port record.
Handling characteristics: Bulk minerals, metals, timber and project or general cargo require separate checks for packaging, dust control, moisture protection, lifting arrangements and temporary storage.

Operations & Compliance

Execution and Risk Controls

Cut-off control: Do not rely on a generic terminal cut-off. Our service team confirms vessel-specific receiving, customs, VGM, SI and gate deadlines directly with the carrier, terminal or appointed agent.
Dangerous goods: Submit the correct UN number, proper shipping name, class, packing group, flash point and container details before booking. Acceptance, segregation and documentation must be approved in advance.
Customs documentation: Commercial invoice, packing list, transport document, origin information, permits and any commodity-specific certificates must match the physical cargo and customs declaration.
Inland delivery: Confirm truck dimensions, axle limits, border formalities, delivery appointment, escort needs and empty-container return instructions before cargo dispatch.

Shipping Tips

Practical Booking Recommendations

Send our team the commodity, HS classification, package dimensions, gross weight, cargo-ready date, destination and preferred Incoterms before requesting a firm routing.
For heavy, oversized, bulk or breakbulk cargo, provide lifting points, center of gravity, stowage requirements and photographs so vessel and handling feasibility can be reviewed early.
Use seaworthy packing, moisture barriers and corrosion protection for metals, minerals and timber; verify fumigation or wood-packaging requirements where applicable.
Keep a contingency plan through another Black Sea gateway or an alternative inland route when space, draft, border congestion or cargo acceptance at Hopa is uncertain.

Frequently Asked Questions

Hopa Port FAQ

Can Hopa handle container shipments? The supplied port record lists containers among the cargo handled, but it does not confirm a fixed liner network, equipment inventory or regular container service. Our team verifies carrier acceptance, equipment availability and the actual port rotation before booking.

Is Hopa suitable for large ocean vessels? The recorded maximum is 145 m in length, 6.7 m draught and 12,630 t deadweight. These are historical recorded limits rather than a universal guarantee; vessel suitability must be checked against current berth, pilotage, weather and cargo conditions.

How should cargo moving to Georgia be planned? Confirm whether the shipment is cleared in Turkey, in transit or intended for export through the border. Truck availability, customs documents, border queues and final delivery permissions can affect the overall schedule.

Are dangerous goods accepted at Hopa? Acceptance is not automatic. The carrier, terminal and relevant authorities must review the DG declaration, packing, marking, segregation and emergency information before cargo is delivered to the port.
