All container traffic and Roll-on-Roll-off (RoRo) cargo has moved to Khalifa Port. Zayed Port has expanded its status as a premier regional hub. This encompasses cruise tourism<\/a>, as well as general and bulk cargo services. With its access to multimodal land, sea and air transport network.<\/p>\n Zayed Port consists of two deep basins for general cargo vessels and cruise liners and a smaller basin for vessels such as tugs, barges and service crafts.<\/p>\n The port also enjoys ease of access, being just five minutes away from the E11 highway and in the centre of Abu Dhabi city. With three gate accesses, the port is fully ISPS-compliant with its own security and safety team.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n As part of the comprehensive development plans to establish Abu Dhabi as a world-class cruise destination, in December 2015, Zayed Port launched the permanent Abu Dhabi Cruise Terminal.\u00a0<\/a> This addresses the increasing demand for cruise tourism to the country.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n The terminal allows three cruise ships to berth at any one time.\u00a0 The prime location gives visitors easy access to a wide range of attractions. These include the Louvre Abu Dhabi Museum, Ferrari World, Yas Island and other leisure attractions, hotels and resorts in the Emirate.<\/p>\n The focus has paid off. The number of tourists visiting the capital has significantly risen since circa 2006 when the first cruise liner called at the port. Today, Zayed Port welcomes high profile cruise ships from Asia, Europe and America, with 100,000s of tourists visiting Abu Dhabi each season.<\/p>\n In 2017, the company recorded a 48 percent increase in passengers arriving at the terminal. Close to six times the eight percent increase forecast in 2016.<\/p>\n Abu Dhabi Ports serves as the region\u2019s premier facilitator of logistics, industry, and trade, as well as a bridge linking Abu Dhabi to the world.<\/p>\n The company serves several clusters covering Ports, Industrial Cities & Free Zone, Maritime, Logistics.
