Bedi Port is a port on the west coast of India, located on the Gulf of Kutch near Jamnagar, Gujarat state. Statistical summaries of traffic at Bedi port show coal to be the main import commodity.

Coal is received from international ports including Samarinda, Indonesia and supplied to domestic customers such as the nearby Sikka Thermal Power Station.

The port has a capacity of six million tonnes per annum. It also imports fertilizer and palm oil, and exports petcoke, among other commodities.
