About Kiribati Ports and Congestion
Betio Port, located on South Tarawa, is the primary seaport of Kiribati and handles nearly all of the country’s international maritime cargo. This port supports general goods, container traffic, and inter-island shipments. Given the port’s limited infrastructure and high dependency on scheduled deliveries, congestion can affect the timely handling of goods. GoComet’s port congestion tracker offers live insights into vessel queues, berth occupancy, and port traffic at Betio. The platform is especially useful for small island logistics, allowing users to make data-driven decisions, plan port calls more efficiently, and benchmark congestion levels with other Pacific island ports.
