Quick Port Distances at Your Fingertips

Calculate the shortest or most economical routes between major ports worldwide – with practical tables, pull-out maps, and real-world shipping data.

Reeds Marine Distance Tables are the go-to reference for captains, navigators and shipowners seeking fast, accurate distance data between major commercial ports across the globe. Ideal for merchant vessels, cruise liners, and increasingly the superyacht fleet, this ready-reckoner simplifies voyage planning worldwide.

The tables are divided into strategic market areas and include a pull-out map for easy regional reference. Traffic Separation Schemes are built into the calculations, and approximations can be made to any port not explicitly listed using the closest nearby port. The book also features key turning points such as Cape Finisterre and Dover Straits, plus Transatlantic distances, world time zones, and time/speed conversion charts.

This updated edition includes expanded coverage of Indian Ocean ports, new routing reflecting China’s shipping influence, and new Adriatic and Aegean inter-distance tables. It also incorporates trends in freighter and cruise movements to highlight the busiest ports worldwide.

Reeds Marine Distance Tables offer a single reference point for calculating the shortest or most economical distances between key ports around the world.
