Ports Worldwide – Port Directory & Ship Tracking
Explore ports around the world, browse country port directories and open public port profiles with maps, nearby ports and available maritime tracking information.
Featured Ports
Open selected public port profiles with verified location data, nearby-port discovery and available vessel tracking maps.
Explore Ports by Country

Explore Maritime Locations and Port Information
Ship-Tracker.org connects public port profiles with geographic location data, nearby ports and maritime tracking tools. Individual port pages can include a UN/LOCODE, coordinates, regional information and an interactive map where suitable data is available.
Country directories make it easier to move from a national overview to individual ports without creating duplicate port pages. Existing port URLs remain the primary destination for each published maritime location.
How Ports Are Identified
Port databases use several identifiers and geographic fields to distinguish maritime locations and help users find the correct destination.
Port Name
The recorded port name identifies the maritime location shown on the public profile.
UN/LOCODE
Where available, UN/LOCODE provides a standardized international location identifier for ports and transport locations.
Coordinates
Latitude and longitude are used to position a port on maps and calculate nearby maritime locations.
Maritime Region
Recorded sea areas, waterways or regional fields can help group ports geographically.
Track Ships Near Ports
Published port profiles can include AIS-based vessel maps that help visitors explore reported ship activity around a port. Depending on coverage, vessels operating near terminals, anchorages and surrounding waterways may appear on the map.
AIS coverage and update intervals vary by location and provider, so reported vessel positions may be delayed, incomplete or temporarily unavailable and should not be used for navigation.
