Differences between port and harbour, types of water transportation, harbour features, and layout factors.
A port is a facility on the coast or shore that provides docking and cargo-handling facilities for ships while a harbour is a sheltered body of water where ships can anchor safely.
Inland water transportation involves navigating through rivers, canals, and lakes, while ocean water transportation involves sea routes for international shipping.
Natural harbours are naturally formed sheltered areas, while artificial harbours are man-made structures to provide safe docking for ships.
