The harbor is a waterfront that has enough depth for ships to enter and, depending on its location, protects ships from wind and waves, which are usually equipped with docks, berths, anchorages and repair shops. A port that is affected by Kashind due to its openness to open waters is called Kashndi Port.

Some ports are natural and because of the shape and indentation of the beach provide a good place as a shelter for boats. Sydney Harbor in Australia is one of the most famous natural harbors in the world.

An anchorage is a place where anchors float along the shore or lake. Anchorages are usually protected areas where ships and boats are protected from waves and storms. At the entrance to the harbor, a place is usually marked with a yellow (floating) odor, and ships anchor there to enforce quarantine regulations, and this place is called the quarantine harbor.
