Oregon International Port of Coos Bay

The Oregon International Port of Coos Bay is a key maritime and rail commerce hub located on Oregon's South Coast, serving as the state's largest deep-draft coastal harbor. Historically a leading timber export facility with hundreds of vessel calls annually, Coos Bay has shifted its focus in response to changing industries and declining timber shipments. In recent years, the Port has positioned itself for a major resurgence through plans to establish a state-of-the-art container terminal on the North Spit, in partnership with NorthPoint Development. This new facility is designed to accommodate modern container ships and to handle nearly all container traffic via direct rail connections, facilitating efficient inland transport. Approximately 2 million tons of cargo move through the harbor annually, with an active seafood industry at the Charleston Marina. The Port operates and invests in both marine and rail infrastructure and pursues development projects such as federal navigation channel deepening to support larger vessels and offshore wind logistics. With these initiatives, the Port aims to restore its role as a Pacific Northwest trade gateway, stimulate local economies, and expand its intermodal capacity to serve global shipping lines.
