Options

Answer 1

Vishakhapatnam

Explanation:

Vishakhapatnam is a landlocked harbour because it is a naturally protected port surrounded by land and connected to the sea only through a narrow channel. A high rocky hill called the Dolphin’s Nose shields the harbour basin from severe sea waves, storms, and cyclones.
