The Port of Berdiansk is a seaport in the city of Berdiansk, Ukraine, on the Sea of Azov.[4] It is the only port in the Zaporizhzhia Oblast and one of Ukraine's two Azov ports (along with Mariupol).
According to the Law "On Seaports of Ukraine," the functions of the seaport administration are performed by the Berdiansk branch of the state enterprise of the Ukrainian Sea Ports Authority and it's guarded by Berdyansk Border Detachment.
Since 27 February 2022, Berdiansk has been under Russian occupation.
