Often the '''Port Town''' will only let you [[Get on the Boat]] after doing a [[Fetch Quest|quest]], usually as a way [[Broken Bridge|to assure the game you're ready]] to move ahead to an area where you might not be able to backtrack to. If the '''Port Town''' is host to an unsavory or criminal subdistract filled with smugglers, privateers and pirates, this is the [[Not-So-Safe Harbor]].

* In ''[[Ragnarok Online]]'', there's Izlude, Alberta and Hugel. Izlude and Hugel have your normal seaports as well as airship ports.
* Kirkwall in ''[[Dragon Age II]]'' is one of these, though it's also the [[Adventure Town]] since the entire plot of the game is focused on the city and the area around it.
* [https://web.archive.org/web/20120624130553/http://www.terraearth.com/wp-terraearth/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/South-Cape.png South Cape] from ''[[Illusion of Gaia]]''. The hometown of the [[Kid Hero]], it's where the game first starts. Ironically, you end up going north and travelling by land when you leave, instead of taking a boat.
