For information on an Arduino board your first stop should always be the product page, which contains some helpful documentation. For the Mega 2560 the page is https://store.arduino.cc/usa/arduino-mega-2560-rev3. If you had checked there you would see this:
Serial: 0 (RX) and 1 (TX); Serial 1: 19 (RX) and 18 (TX); Serial 2: 17 (RX) and 16 (TX); Serial 3: 15 (RX) and 14 (TX). Used to receive (RX) and transmit (TX) TTL serial data. Pins 0 and 1 are also connected to the corresponding pins of the ATmega16U2 USB-to-TTL Serial chip.
You will find those pins on the rightmost header on the top edge of the board in this picture:

port whatever?
