The Kushiro Port is located in eastern Hokkaido. Since opening in 1899, improvements have been made to it as a core port for eastern Hokkaido.
The Shin-Kushiro River flows through town and divides the area into East and West where each port is constructed. An Earthquake-resistant Cruise Ship Terminal in the East Area came into service in 2011. It is located in the center of town, and the adjacent Fisherman's Wharf serves as a unique, comprehensive tourism complex with a market, souvenir shops, and restaurants. Meanwhile, larger passenger ships that cannot reach the Cruise Ship Terminal shore are received at the 4th wharf in the West Area.
