Facing the front (bow) of the boat, starboard is to your right, port to your left. Long ago, boats were steered with a steering oar mounted on the right rear. That "steer board" on the right would be in the way when a ship docked, so it docked on the left side. That was where you got off the boat- when in "port". On the port side.
What is something that are right and left of a ship called?
In very old sailing vessels, the ship didn't have a rudder built into the ship; instead, a long oar-shaped "Steering board" was mounted near the stern of the ship, and generally on the right side. This steering board could be damaged if it banged into the dock, and so generally the ship came to the pier with the left side of the ship. We now call the left side the "port" side of the ship, and the right side is the "steering board" or "starboard" side.
