# Doha Harbor (KW DOH)

**UN/LOCODE:** KW DOH  
**Country:** Kuwait  
**Water Body:** Persian Gulf; Indian Ocean  
**Harbor Size:** Very Small  
**Harbor Type:** Coastal (Natural)  
**GPS:** 29.3833, 47.8000

Despite its row of piers, Doha (Mina ad-Dawhah) in Kuwait is best treated as a minor harbour with limited commercial freight relevance. Water depths of only about 3 to 4 m restrict it to shallow-draught, local and fishing traffic, so containers, tankers and international cargo are out of scope. Kuwait's seaborne imports and exports are handled at Shuwaikh, near Kuwait City, and at Shuaiba further south, which together cover container and general-cargo needs. Forwarders with shipments to Kuwait should plan via Shuwaikh or Shuaiba rather than Doha.
