The Port of Montecara (Montecaran: Pòrt de Montecara) is the cargo, ferry, and cruise terminal serving the city-state of Montecara. A port city since antiquity, Montecara relies so heavily on its port that its history has often been molded by the ships, goods, and people that have passed through its docks and wharves.

In addition to its crucial role in oceanic trade, Montecara has become one of the world's most popular cruise destinations, with several cruise ships coming and going nearly every day. The city-state's location at the narrowest point between Euclea and Coius also makes it an important ferry destination, with millions of passengers starting, ending, or continuing their journeys through the port every year.

Ferries

Ferries are intended for transportation rather than entertainment, distinguishing them from cruise ships. Cruiseferries operate a middle ground between simple transportation and pleasure, offering more comfortable accommodations and some entertainment options suitable for longer voyages. Catamarans are the fastest option and operate at a premium relative to ordinary ferries.
