Maritime clusters are a network of companies, research, development and innovation units and educational organizations that collaborate with the aim of technological innovation and increasing the performance of the maritime industry. Although many studies have discussed the concept of marine clusters, their definition is still changing and a single definition of them has not been provided. For this reason, in the present research, all kinds of views about marine clusters were investigated. It should be noted that in the current research, the library method and the tool of data collection of data collection were used in order to collect research data. 3 views were raised about the types of maritime clusters, which are: maritime clusters as an industrial complex, maritime clusters as a multitude of interconnected industries, and maritime clusters as a community-oriented network. On the other hand, the types of marine clusters are also different from each other in terms of constituent sectors and industries. In fact, each of them seriously includes two or more categories of industries such as marine biological resources, physical marine transportation activities, marine services, marine technologies, etc. Finally, regarding the development of marine clusters, it was categorized into three categories: intrinsic, extrinsic and a combination of them. Intrinsic factors are more related to the characteristics of the port, history and culture in that area. On the other hand, external factors refer to factors such as government policies and support, economic conditions in the region and its dynamic level. Finally, it was mentioned that Porter's cluster diamond model as a comprehensive model has put these types of external and intrinsic influencing factors together.
