Shepherd's Port is a riverside locality on the edge of King's Lynn in the borough of King's Lynn and West Norfolk, Norfolk, England. Perched beside the tidal channel of the River Great Ouse and within sight of the mudflats of The Wash, it sits within the long maritime landscape that made King's Lynn an important medieval and later trading port.
Today the area blends dockside character, light industry and some residential pockets, with historic quays and warehouses nearby and reasonably easy access to King's Lynn town centre. Recent regeneration has tried to keep the nautical heritage visible while accommodating modern economic uses, so the place feels both practical and rooted in the local community.
