Reni

The Reni Seaport is a port located on the left bank of the Danube, in South Ukraine. It is an important transport hub of Ukraine, where the work of river, sea, road, and rail transport is closely intertwined. Navigation takes place throughout the year. Reni has become more important for exporting Ukrainian grain after the Russian invasion of Ukraine (February 2022) blocked the country’s Black Sea ports.
