Port Said (Port code:EGPSD) is situated on the northern entrance of the Suez Canal and is considered one of the most important Egyptian ports due to its distinctive location. The port is artificial formed by breakwaters. A bypass channel has been built east of Port Said in order to avoid large vessels and vessels with dangerous cargo to enter the main Port Said port. It is constructed Between the mediteranean sea and connects with the canal 17 kilometers south of Port Said.
After the standard-gauge railway from Cairo via Ismailia was completed (1904), it became Egypt’s chief port after Alexandria; in addition to canal traffic, it handled cotton and rice exports from the eastern delta. A frozen-seafood plant for the export trade has been added to the port’s fishing facilities.
