Ketapang Station (formerly Banyuwangi Baru Station) is a railway station, managed by Kereta Api Indonesia, located at Ketapang, Kalipuro, Banyuwangi Regency, East Java. This station is at the most southeastern railway station in Southeast Asia.

History

The background to the opening of the new port in Ketapang was the silting of the port city of Banyuwangi (now Boom Beach) which made it difficult for freight ships to lean on the pier.^[4] On 1 January 1974, this port activity was stopped and moved to a new port in Meneng (now Tanjungwangi).^[5]

Because the need for crossings is increasing, it is necessary to create integration and continuity between modes of transportation. This station was built simultaneously with the construction of a new line from Kabat Station to Ketapang Harbor in 1984–1985 to replace the Banyuwangi Lama Station which had been established in the city of Banyuwangi. On 7 September 1985, the new line was officially opened along with the operation of this station and two other stations located on the line (Karangasem—now Banyuwangi Kota—and Argopuro).^[6]
