It is located in Tokyo Bay, approx 28 km (17 mi) south of Tokyo City. Due to the close distance (train travel time 30 min) Yokohama is often used as cruise port to Tokyo. Port's cruising season runs from February through October.

Port Yokohama

The seaport was opened to foreign trade in 1859, handling mainly raw silk export and technology import. The port authority company (managing all facilities and operations) is Yokohama Kawasaki International Port Corporation. Currently, the port has 10 large piers.

  • Honmoku Pier has 24 berths, of which 14 serve container ships .
  • Osanbashi Pier serves passenger ships ( ferries and cruises).
  • Detamachi Pier serves food carriers (fresh fruits and vegetables).
  • Daikoku Pier is located on a man-made island (sized 321 hectares) and has 7 container berths plus large-capacity warehouses.
  • Minami Honmoku Pier (port's newest) has 2 berths (each 350 m long), water depth (max draft) 16 m (52 ft) and is equipped with 6 large gantry cranes. Here can be handled world's largest boxships.

In 2013, the port handled a total of 37,706 vessels, over 271 million tons of cargo and nearly 2,9 million TEU-containers.

On January 31, 2017, Yokohama was selected as one of all 6 Japanese ports to receive private funding for structural upgrades of their cruise terminal facilities.

  • The project aimed to attract more cruise ships and to increase the number of visiting international passengers. The other ports in that list are Shimizu , Sasebo ,  Yatsushiro-Kumamoto City , Motobu  and Miyakojima .
  • At the above listed ports, cruise companies will build passenger terminals and other port facilities using their own funds. Other companies and lines / operators will be also allowed to use these facilities. However, the cruise ship companies that will build the new port facilities will be given priority to use the wharfs.

  • In 2016, the number of cruise ship visitors to Japan reached 1,9 million. In comparison, 2013 season's statistics showed only 174,000 passengers.

For season 2018-2019, the cruise port reported a 28% increase in berth bookings and handled 178 ship calls. In April 2019 was opened the new cruise terminal Daikoku Pier. By 2023, the Daikoku terminal expansion project will increase its berthing capacity to two large liners simultaneously. Another new cruise terminal (Shinko Pier) was inaugurated in October 2019.

Yokohama: tourist information

Yokohama is often called the Garden City, though its name actually means "City by the Bay." Its waterfront area provides a port to the rest of the world as well as beautiful beaches. The waterfront district has unique arts galleries and boutiques and one of the largest Chinatown areas in Japan. Yokohama is the home of Japan's Central Baseball League and Japan's first coffee shop. There is even an indoor beach with sand and water and waves!

The second largest city in Japan, Yokohama is home to 3 million people and is a growing, innovative business center. Its large, accessible port has made it Japan's largest international trading center. It certainly maintains its own identity and does not fall into the shadow of Tokyo, a mere 18.6 miles (30 kilometers) from Tokyo.

Yokohama Port (area:KANTO/KANAGAWA)

Port information.

cruise schedule yokohama

The Yokohama Port has served as a gateway to the greater Tokyo area and has welcomed countless cruise ships since its opening in 1859 as Japan's first modern international trading port. Lying as many as 11 nautical miles closer to the Pacific than the Tokyo Port, it allows cruise ships to save on pilot charges and fuel, and passengers can spend a greater amount of time for sightseeing. As the port is conveniently set in the heart of Yokohama, shopping and tourist destinations are a walk away. Since the Yokohama Port is situated at the center of Tokyo Bay, public transportations offer easy access to Tokyo and farther on to Mt. Fuji and Kamakura, which are ideal day trip destinations. The state-of-the-art international passenger terminal was reopened in 2002 can accommodate four 30,000-ton-class or two 70,000-ton-class cruise ships at once.

Sightseeing:

Yokohama is a cosmopolitan city that blends the old and the new, and Japanese and western cultures. Within walking distance from the passenger terminal, there are shopping districts, high-end hotels and a renowned Chinatown. A 10-minute bus ride will take you to Sankeien, a vast traditional Japanese garden, and to the Yokohama Noh Theater with a 19th century traditional noh stage.

The port and city of Yokohama are renowned for their warmhearted hospitality cultivated over a century through welcoming countless passenger vessels from around the world. Yokohama with its geographical advantage, extensive railroad networks and unique terminal that can offer efficiency to your operation can be an ideal logistic hub for various tours, whether sightseeing or dining or cultural activities in the Tokyo Metropolitan region. Sankeien Garden is a vast genuine Japanese garden with an area of 180,000 square meters. Many of the buildings have been designated as national cultural properties. The garden comes alive with plum blossoms in winter, cherry blossoms and azaleas in spring, and the changing colors of leaves in autumn. You can enjoy nature as it changes with the seasons. 10 minutes by bus, ask in port for details.

Tours Excursions Transportation:

When you board a taxi, note that the vehicle's left rear door is opened and closed remotely by the driver. You are not supposed to open or close it by yourself. Furthermore, you are not supposed to tip taxi drivers, as the service is included in the price.

If you do not speak Japanese, or your destination is not a well known place, it is recommended to give your driver the precise address of your destination on a piece of paper or, even better, point it out on a map, since the Japanese address system can be confusing even to local taxi drivers.

It pays to compare your cruise line tours here .

Nearby Places:

Kamakura was the site of the feudal government (the ancient capital of Japan) 800 years ago. It is now a quiet cultural center with many sights of interest, especially temples and shrines including Tsurugaoka Hachiman-gu built by the Shogun in 1180. Further south is the Daibutsu, or Great Buddha of Kamakura. It is 11.4 meters tall, the second highest Buddha statue in Japan. It is a national treasure but you can enter inside the statue. 60 minutes by bus. Mt. Fuji, the tallest mountain in Japan, is a national symbol. Hakone is one of the most famous hot spring resorts in Japan. It offers not only hot spring accommodation but also daily bathing facilities. Visiting a hot spring is very enjoyable. 120 minutes by bus. Excursions are offered by you cruise line.

Shopping and Food

Yokohama also has many shopping spots for all fashions. Especially, Minato Mirai 21 has lots of large shopping malls. The west side of Yokohama has all kinds of entertainment, music, fashion and of course Yodobashi camera and Big camera for electronic shops.

The currency in Japan is the yen. It comes in denominations of ¥10,000, ¥5,000 and ¥1,000 notes, as well as ¥500, ¥100, ¥50, ¥10, ¥5 and ¥1 coins.

ATMs in Japan are becoming more useful, and most can be used to withdraw funds from overseas accounts. Post offices also offer ATMs. Major credit cards are accepted at a majority of stores and restaurants in large urban areas, but if you plan on spending any time in rural areas, be sure to carry sufficient cash. Japan is still very much a cash society and some stores, hotels and restaurants regardless of location refuse credit cards.

Don't tip, as it's considered rude!

Chicken yakitori on a white plate

Local Cuisine

Japan has some of the world's most renowned cuisine, and Tokyo is the epicenter of all that goodness. Try nigirizushi -style sushi, with simple, single cuts of delicate raw fish served over vinegared rice. Indulge in Tokyo's unique approach to the pan-Japanese noodle soup ramen — here, thin, wavy noodles luxuriate in a soy-infused chicken broth.

Landmark building and Mount Fuji in background, Yokohama City, Japan (November 2008)

Yokohama (Tokyo), Japan

Until the mid-19th century, Japan lived in isolation, closed off from the rest of the world, and Yokohama was a mere fishing village. But in 1853, American naval officer Matthew Perry demanded the country open to foreign trade, and Yokohama was changed forever. The city quickly emerged as an international trading center, and while today it is often overshadowed by nearby Tokyo, it continues to be one of Japan’s liveliest, and most international, destinations. With its microbreweries and international restaurants, Yokohama has a decidedly different feel from many other Japanese cities.  

From Yokohama, it’s a quick trip to peaceful Kamakura, home to Daibutsu, Japan’s second-largest bronze Buddha, and to the important Shinto shrine Tsurugaoka Hachimangu. Head to Hakone National Park on a clear day and you’ll be rewarded with picture-postcard views of majestic Mt. Fuji. 

Tokyo is the largest city on earth and packed with some of the world’s best shops, museums and restaurants, big and small. While the bright neon lights and the bustle of contemporary Tokyo may be what comes to mind when you think of the city, there is another side. Tokyo's historic gardens and neighborhoods of traditional homes on narrow lanes speak to a timeless Japan that has survived into the 21st century.

Great question! Let me do some research and I'll get back to you.

Shinko and Minato Mirai is not resident district. Coin laundries are found Isezaki-cho and Kannai are, west side of JR train line.

Thank you for your reply. I will check the area for coin laundry.

cruise schedule yokohama

Why don't you book a stay at a hotel with coin laudry washing machines?

Is there any way you can do the laundry on the ship? There's a lot to see in Yokohama that you'd miss if you spend the day in a laundromat.
