port's

What the harbor's

Port's is the possessive form of port—indicating something belongs to or is associated with a port.

A port is a harbor town where ships dock, a type of fortified wine from Portugal, or a connection point on a computer.

The possessive marks ownership or characteristics: the port's facilities were outdated, the port's rich sweetness paired well with cheese, the port's bandwidth limitations.
