I have a few battleships that are damaged and they never heal. Are they not supposed to? can they only heal in cities with coastal fortresses or what?

I have yet to see a naval unit heal if it is not in a city, as a matter of fact in my last game I forgot about damaged ironclad and it never healed. I think the Battlefield Medicine wonder only works for ground troops.

Yes, naval units can only be repaired in cities with Harbours.

Empirical evidence indicates they only heal in a harbor. I even tried resting a damaged ship 1 square outside of one of my cities... no dice. If you played civ2, remember the port facility served this function... like barracks for ground units. I don't think there is a port facility now, so harbors serve the purpose.
Besides, this is more realistic. Think about the USS Cole. They had to bring it back to the US and put it in drydocks to repair damage. Injured people (like most ground troop units) can heal most anywhere, ships and planes need special facilities.
