A roadstead is a term used in maritime contexts to refer to a part of a body of water where ships can anchor safely. Typically, a roadstead is located near a harbor or port but is not as sheltered as a full harbor. It often has sufficient depth and space for vessels to maneuver and is generally protected from heavy seas, although it might still be exposed to winds.
