Da Nang's port system is the third largest in Vietnam after Ho Chi Minh City and Haiphong.
In 2008, Da Nang's port handled 2.7 million tons of cargo, of which 1.2 million tons were exports, 525,900 tons were imports, and 985,600 tons were domestic cargo.
Over 29,600 passengers passed through the port in 2008, a significant increase over previous years.
The port system consists of two areas: Tiên Sa Seaport, and Song Hàn Terminal.
Tien Sa Seaport has a navigation depth of 11m, and is able to receive medium range tankers of up to 45,000 DWT, as well as container ships and large cruise ships.
The approach to Song Hàn Terminal is 12 nautical miles (22 km) long with a navigation depth of 6-7m, and can accommodate vessels of up to 5,000 DWT.
Vietnam National Shipping Lines (Vinalines) is the port authority for Đà Nẵng's port system.

Despite the fact that the port's infrastructure is not specifically designed to accommodate cruise ships, the number of large cruise ships docking at Da Nang Port has increased in recent years.
In the first two months of 2010 alone, 12 cruise ships docked in Da Nang, carrying 6,477 passengers.

In recent years, cruise ships tend to dock at Chân Mây Port, which is located 50 km from Da Nang through the Hải Vân Tunnel.
