**Country:** United Kingdom

Three roll-on/roll-off berths taking ships up to 180 m LOA, 40 m beam and 6.5 m draught define Ramsgate's commercial port within the Royal Harbour on the Kent coast. It handles around 1.7 million tonnes a year — chiefly ro-ro freight, aggregates and offshore-wind components, with occasional cruise and ferry calls. Cross-channel ferry services ran until 2013, and the port now serves mainly as a support base for the London Array wind farm and other Kent offshore projects, while Thanet District Council seeks a concession operator. There is no scheduled liner container handling here. Hinterland access is by road to the southern English network, with no rail link to the quay. For container shipments, London Gateway or Tilbury on the Thames are the appropriate ports, while Dover handles cross-channel ro-ro and ferries.
