Stanley Harbour, Natural inlet on the east coast of East Falkland, Falkland Islands
Stanley Harbour extends along East Falkland's coastline, connected to Port William through a narrow strait known as The Narrows.
The inlet served as a strategic base for the British Squadron during the First World War and later accommodated damaged vessels from the Battle of the River Plate.
Maritime artifacts and multiple shipwrecks, including Lady Elizabeth and Jhelum, remain visible within the harbor waters.
The harbor functions as the main maritime gateway of the Falkland Islands, receiving cruise ships, freighters, fishing vessels, and naval ships throughout the year.
The waters near Stanley Harbour host populations of Falklands Flightless Steamer Ducks and Patagonian Crested Ducks in their natural habitat.
