Sea freight to Jeddah
We provide full container (FCL) and less-than-container (LCL) sea freight from Turkish ports to Jeddah. We choose the right carrier and container type together, based on your volume, delivery date and budget.
Gulf and Red Sea ports are served via the Suez Canal; routing conditions can affect transit time.
What to know about Jeddah
- Jeddah Islamic Port on the Red Sea is the main sea gateway to Mecca and Medina, with 62 berths able to take ships of up to 19,800 TEU.
- Sailings from Turkey to Jeddah use the Suez Canal but do not pass Bab el-Mandeb, so they are less affected by disruption in the southern Red Sea.
