Information about port facilities and destinations around the world

[Mad_k]

Let's start a subforum where we are going to find port facilities and information for the places that we visit! What is your opinion moderator?

[Παναγιώτης]

This is the purpose of this section. We can start in this thread. If there are sufficient posts for a particular place then a new thread concerning the specific port will be opened and all relevant posts will be transfered there.

Welcome Mad K.

You can start hear with your experience of a visit at a particular port(s).

By gathering information about different ports of the world, maybe in the future we will be able to have a 'database' with useful operational, commercial and recreational details.

A great source of information is the following publication:
World Port Index
The World Port Index (Pub 150) publication contains the location, characteristics, known facilities, and available services of major ports, shipping facilities and oil terminals throughout the world (approximately 64,000 entries). The data in this publication is mostly tabular and new editions are published bi-annually. This publication is available in its entirety on the website http://www.nga.mil/portal/site/marit...c24fd73927a759
and there are also database queries available for all of the port information contained within.

Another website is the www.portfocus.com which contains the websites of the bigger ports in every country.

I apologize for my late reply.

I bet most people involved in shipping will find the info contained in this thread interesting and useful.

We can also circulate things to avoid, with regard to operations etc, at specific ports of the world.
