Porbandar Port is a medium-sized port on India's west coast, in the Saurashtra region of Gujarat state, owned and operated by the state-owned Gujarat Maritime Board (GMB).
The all-weather port faces the Arabian Sea and has direct berthing facilities that can accommodate ships up to 50,000 DWT. The port imports coal, LPG (liquefied petroleum gas), and wet dates. Between 2009 and 2016, coal handling volumes fluctuated between 290,000 and 610,000 tonnes per annum.[1][2] The port handled about 2 million tonnes of total cargo each year from 2016 to 2020.[3]
