Port Clarence is a village in County Durham. It lies on the north bank of the River Tees at the County Durham end of the Middlesbrough Transport Bridge.

The village, previously known as Samphire Batts, was renamed following a visit by the Duke of Clarence. It is within the council area of Stockton-on-Tees.
