a berth structure for mooring the ship on the open sea; An isolated piled or gravity structure used either to maneuver a ship or to facilitate holding it in position at its berth.
berth structure
pier
jetty
dolphin
A continuous structure built parallel to along the margin of the sea or alongside riverbanks, canals, or waterways where vessel may lie alongside to receive or discharge cargo, embark or disembark passengers or lie at rest

a navigable channel in a harbor, offshore etc; the usual course taken by vessels in such places.
port
harbor
ocean port
fairway
a period of approximately a few minutes to a few tens of minutes. It occurs when small fluctuations of the water level are generated by micro-scale variations of the atmospheric pressure by an air front or a low pressure in the outer sea, and the components of those oscillations whose period is the same as a natural period of the harbor are amplified through resonance
tidal waves
tsunami
selche
storm surge
A place where the ship can moor. In the case of a quay or jetty structure, it will include the section of the structure where labor, equipment and cargo move to and from the ship.
port
berth
