Westport Marina in Top 10 US Commercial Seafood Landing Ports

November 2022

The Westport Marina is once again in the top 10 commercial seafood landing ports in the U.S, based on 2021 NOAA Statistics.  At 10th in the Nation, the Westport Marina saw more than 132 million pounds of commercial seafood landed at its docks.  Westport also ranks 14th in the Nation for value landed at $71.5 million. 

Roughly 180 commercial fishing vessels call the Westport Marina home, with an additional 75-100 transient commercial vessels coming from all over the Pacific Northwest to utilize the Marina for offloading and moorage.  The Marina is also home to 5 upland seafood processors.  The activities at the Westport Marina and its uplands support nearly 2,300 jobs and over $277 million in business revenue every year in rural, Southwest Washington. 

“We are pleased to support our commercial fishing fleet,” stated Westport Marina General Manager Molly Bold.  “We are committed to continued improvements to the infrastructure and services on which these boats and businesses rely.”
