Suez Megaport

The Suez Megaport (Arabic: ميناء السويس الضخم mĩnā’ as-suwīs aḍ-ḍakham) is the Arab Union's largest seaport by physical size and busiest by annual volume of shipments. Located within the municipal boundaries of the Palestinian cities of Port Said and Port Fuad (the former of which is Palestine's most populous city), the Suez Megaport consists of multiple individual, specialised commercial and industrial ports, some of which are physically separate from the larger facilities, centred on a harbour formed by the two arms of the Suez Canal (which continue to the Mediterranean Sea and originate just south of Port Fuad where the single canal splits in two, forming the island on which Port Fuad is located) and a large breakwater protecting the entrance to the canal about 3 km north of the canal's end.

Virtually the entire Mediterranean and canal coastline of the two cities is occupied by the Suez Megaport, with the exception of the northern (Mediterranean) coast of Port Fuad as well as a smaller section in the east of the city on the canal's east arm, which host Budapest Naval Station, the second-largest base and operational headquarters of the Arab Navy. The naval station is essentially a part of the Suez Megaport, as the two entities share most infrastructure and some facilities, though it is administered separately due to its military nature. The naval station was originally constructed in this location to defend the strategically and economically important canal and port, which remains one of its major purposes. The Suez Megaport, along with the Suez Canal itself and all other ports and facilities on the canal (the other major port being Port Tawfeeq at the canal's southern end), are owned and operated by the Suez Canal Authority, a federal government-owned state enterprise.
