A harbor (American English) or harbour (Commonwealth English) is a sheltered part of a body of water where ships, boats, and barges can be moored.
The term harbor is often used interchangeably with port, however port refers specifically to the facilities for loading and unloading ships, as opposed to just a sheltered area of water. For example, Alexandria Port in Egypt is a port with two harbors.
Harbors may be natural or artificial. An artificial harbor can have breakwaters, sea walls, or jetties, or they can be constructed by dredging, which requires maintenance by further periodic dredging. An example of an artificial harbor is Long Beach Harbor, California, United States, which was previously an array of salt marshes and tidal flats too shallow for modern merchant ships before it was first dredged in the early 20th century.[1] In contrast, a natural harbor is surrounded on several sides by naturally-occurring land. Examples of natural harbors include Victoria Harbor, Hong Kong, Sydney Harbour, New South Wales, Australia, Halifax Harbour in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada, and Trincomalee Harbour in Sri Lanka.
Artificial harbors
Artificial harbors are frequently built for use as ports. The oldest artificial harbor known is the Ancient Egyptian site at Wadi al-Jarf, on the Red Sea coast, which is at least 4500 years old (ca. 2600–2550 BCE, reign of King Khufu). The largest artificially created harbor is Jebel Ali in Dubai.[2] Other large and busy artificial harbors include:
- Port of Long Beach and Los Angeles, California, United States
- Port of Casablanca, Morocco
- Port of Koper, Slovenia
The Ancient Carthaginians constructed fortified, artificial harbors called cothons.
Natural harbors
TemplateStyles' src attribute must not be empty.
A natural harbor is a landform where a section of a body of water is protected and deep enough to allow anchorage. Many such harbors are rias. Natural harbors have long been of great strategic naval and economic importance, and many great cities of the world are located on them. Having a protected harbor reduces or eliminates the need for breakwaters as it will result in calmer waves inside the harbor. Some examples are:
- Bali Strait, Indonesia
- Mumbai in Maharashtra, India
- Boston Harbor in Massachusetts, United States
- Chittagong in Chittagong Division, Bangladesh
- Cork Harbour, Ireland
- Guantánamo Bay, Cuba
- Haifa Bay, in Haifa, Israel
- Halifax Harbour in Nova Scotia, Canada
- Killybegs in County Donegal, Ireland
- Kingston Harbour, Jamaica
- Mahón harbour, in Menorca, Spain
- Marsamxett Harbour, Malta
- Milford Haven in Wales, United Kingdom
- New York Harbor in the United States
- Pago Pago Harbor in American Samoa
- Pearl Harbor in Hawaii, United States
- Poole Harbour in England, United Kingdom
- Port Hercules, Monaco
- Sydney Harbour in New South Wales, Australia, technically a ria
- Port Stephens in Australia
- Port of Messina in Sicily, Italy
- Tanjung Perak in Surabaya, Indonesia
- Port of Tobruk in Tobruk, Libya

- Tallinn Bay in Tallinn, Estonia
- Tampa Bay in Florida, United States
- Trincomalee Harbour, Sri Lanka

- Victoria Harbour in Hong Kong
- Visakhapatnam Harbour, India
- Vizhinjam in Trivandrum, India
- Waitematā Harbour in Auckland, New Zealand
- Manukau Harbour in Auckland, New Zealand
- Wellington Harbour in Wellington, New Zealand
- Port Foster in Deception Island, Antarctica
Ice-free harbors
For harbors near the North and South poles, being ice-free is an important advantage, especially when it is year-round. Examples of these are:
- Hammerfest, Norway
- Liinakhamari, Russia
- Murmansk, Russia
- Nakhodka in Nakhodka Bay, Russia
- Pechenga, Russia
- Prince Rupert, Canada
- Valdez, United States
- Vardø, Norway
- Vostochny Port, Russia
The world's southernmost harbor, located at Antarctica's Winter Quarters Bay (77° 50′ South), is sometimes ice-free, depending on the summertime pack ice conditions.[3]
