About Martinique Ports and Congestion
Martinique’s primary port at Fort-de-France is a multipurpose terminal serving containerized, Ro/Ro, and cruise vessel traffic. It typically maintains low to moderate congestion levels due to streamlined port processes and modern cargo handling infrastructure. Container throughput has increased steadily due to growing regional demand, but berth availability and automated scheduling tools have kept turnaround times efficient. Seasonal cruise traffic can increase congestion temporarily, requiring coordination between cargo and passenger berthing. The port also serves as a transshipment link for nearby islands. Ongoing expansion of the terminal yard and improved customs integration is aimed at boosting flow during peak shipping windows.
