The harbour
The Index rates Port Dickson a medium-sized open roadstead, where ships anchor off the coast. Its entrance channel is at least 11 m deep. It is about 33 km from the point where the map counts the ships going through the Strait of Malacca.

What the live map can see
In 24 hours of AIS recorded Oct 12 – 19, the map heard only 43 ships within 10 km of Port Dickson: reception here is patchy, so most ships won’t show.
Good to know
- NGA’s World Port Index rates a harbour by its area, facilities and wharf space when it was last surveyed, not by its traffic, so a busy terminal can be rated small. Where it doesn’t know about a facility it says so, and only what it marks as there is listed here.
- AIS is heard by receivers on shore, so coverage follows where they are: ships far out at sea, or off coasts without one, don’t show. Warships and some others switch it off, and a ship’s type and destination are typed in by its crew.
- Harbours from NGA’s World Port Index (Pub. 150), downloaded on Oct 19, 2026. The major ports and chokepoints are the map’s own reference list.
