Port of Astoria

The Port of Astoria, located in Oregon at the mouth of the Columbia River near its meeting with the Pacific Ocean, is a vital maritime hub for both commercial and recreational users in the Pacific Northwest. Established in 1910, the port has played a key role in the region's economic development, supporting local industry and job creation. Its deep-draft marine terminals serve a range of commercial cargo, including bulk, breakbulk, and containerized goods, and are a favored stop for global shipping lines and cruise ships. The Port of Astoria is also a gateway for tourists, with a centrally-located cruise terminal in downtown Astoria that draws thousands for access to the city's historic attractions and scenic beauty. The modern marinas and extensive boatyard cater to both fishing fleets and pleasure craft, while facilities for vessel repairs, provisioning, and fish processing support maritime operations from regional to international scale. The port's proximity to the Columbia River and Pacific Ocean, combined with its integrated transportation and business infrastructure—including the adjacent regional airport—anchors its significance in U.S. West Coast shipping, tourism, and community development.
