Turkmenbashi International Seaport

Largest seaport of Turkmenistan on the eastern Caspian coast (Turkmenbashi Gulf), a 150-hectare government-owned passenger and cargo port with ferry lines to Baku, Aktau and Astrakhan. Active commercial port waters where in-water fishing/spearfishing is precluded by port operations and security; treat as a prohibited (port) zone (port-operations basis inferred, not from an explicit spearfishing rule).
