Port Overview
Tomil Port is a strategically positioned maritime facility located in the Federated States of Micronesia (FM), situated in the southeastern Pacific region. Positioned at 9.51516°N, 138.125°E, this port serves as a critical maritime infrastructure for regional trade and maritime logistics in the Micronesian archipelago. While relatively compact, Tomil Port offers significant potential for maritime operations, particularly for vessels navigating the complex oceanic routes of the Western Pacific.
Geographic Location & Access
Nestled in the southeastern maritime zone of Micronesia, Tomil Port benefits from a unique geographical positioning that provides strategic access to major Pacific shipping corridors.
