Port Bell is a small industrial centre in the greater metropolitan Kampala area, in Uganda. Port Bell has a rail link and a rail/road ferry wharf used for International traffic across Lake Victoria to Tanzania and Kenya. It is located at the end of a narrow inlet of Lake Victoria, approximately 7 miles (11 km), by road, southeast of the Central business district of Kampala.
The port is named after Sir Hesketh Bell, a British commissioner, who took over administration of Britain’s interests in Uganda in 1906. Its rail link is a branch line from the Kampala-Jinja main line. Lake Victoria ferries operate from Port Bell linking Kampala to other railhead ports on Lake Victoria including Jinja, Kisumu and Mwanza. The Port Bell ferry wharf is visible on high-resolution Google Earth photos at latitude 0.2885° longitude 32.653°. A ferry is shown loading truck and rail coaches while another waits.
