Shore leave

Mundra (Adani-owned) is India's largest private container port, on the Gulf of Kutch in Gujarat. Shore leave is granted under standard Indian procedure. Welfare provision is more limited than Mumbai or Chennai — Mundra is a smaller town built around the port. Stella Maris and Mission to Seafarers operate locally.

Walking distance and transit

Mundra Port is 15-30 minutes from Mundra town by agent van. The wider region requires longer travel — Gandhidham (the nearest city) is 60 minutes, Ahmedabad 6 hours.
