Port William, Natural inlet on the east coast of East Falkland, Falkland Islands
Port William extends along the east coast with several connected bays, including Gypsy Cove, Yorke Bay, and Sparrow Cove.
The inlet underwent extensive mine removal operations following the Falklands War, with the final mine cleared in November 2020.
French cartographer Dom Pernety conducted initial mapping surveys of Port William in 1769, establishing its maritime importance.
The waterway connects to Stanley Harbour through the Narrows, serving as a primary route for cruise ships and freight vessels.
Kidney Island sits north of the inlet, while a peninsula containing Stanley Airport and Canopus Hill separates it from Stanley Harbour.
