fishing port
Where boats unload
A fishing port is a harbor or coastal town whose primary function is supporting commercial fishing operations.
Fishing ports typically have facilities for docking fishing vessels, processing catches, and supplying boats with fuel, ice, and equipment.
Some fishing ports are sections of larger harbors; others define entire communities: Gloucester remains one of New England's busiest fishing ports.
