portless

Lacking maritime infrastructure

Portless describes something lacking a port or ports.

In computing and electronics, a portless device has no physical connection points—no USB, no headphone jack, no charging port: The new phone is completely portless, relying on wireless charging and Bluetooth.

The word also applies to coastlines or regions without harbors: a portless stretch of rocky shore.
