Berthing policy
The fairway leading to Turku between the stretch of Kuuva – Port of Turku is one-way, and regular liner traffic has priority. Cruise vessels calling Turku must hence adapt their arrival and departure to liner traffic schedules (3 liner calls / day).
Harbour pilotage is not obligatory, sea pilotage is obligatory. The use of tugboat is not obligatory unless otherwise stated by the port. The pilot and the agent can be consulted.
The Port of Turku will start a construction project in the near future that includes a new Terminal building, car fields, digitalisation, reconstruction of quays and infrastructure.
The port will welcome cruise ships as usual but there might be som adjustments to the quay arrangements.
Note that vessels under 130 m and ca 6 m draft can be moored in the river Aura.
