Port of Doraleh

The Port of Doraleh is an extension of the Port of Djibouti, located 5 km west of Djibouti City. The multipurpose port has terminals for handling oil, bulk cargo, containers and livestock. It was partially owned and operated by DP World and China Merchants Holdings, until its container facility was seized by the government of Djibouti in February 2018. There is a Chinese naval base directly adjacent to the port. China’s first overseas military base is in close proximity to the port.
