A port is defined as an area on both land and water, whether on the sea or river, that provides facilities for shipping vessels to load and unload their cargo.

There may be several harbors and/or terminals within the port limits. While a terminal is defined as a single man-made facility that may have several berths, that handles vessels and possibly more than one type of vessel or cargo.
