Paradeep Port is located on the coast of Odisha, India, at the confluence of the Mahanadi river and the Bay of Bengal. The port is situated near the delta formed by the Mahanadi river system.
Major ports in India are often located at strategic points on the coastline, often near river mouths or in natural harbours, facilitating trade and connectivity.
The Mahanadi is a major river in East-Central India, flowing through Chhattisgarh and Odisha before draining into the Bay of Bengal. Its delta is a fertile region along the Odisha coast. Paradeep is one of the major ports on the eastern coast of India.
