Port Newark-Elizabeth Marine Terminal is the name for the port facility in Newark Bay that serves as the principal container ship facility for goods entering and leaving the metropolitan region of New York City and the northeastern quadrant of North America. It consists of two components (Port Newark and the Elizabeth Marine Terminal, sometimes called "Port Elizabeth") which exist side-by-side and are run conjointly by the Port Authority of New York & New Jersey. The facility is located within the boundaries of the two cities of Newark and Elizabeth, New Jersey, just east of the New Jersey Turnpike and Newark Liberty International Airport.

The Port is the nineteenth busiest in the world today, but was number one as recently as 1985.
