Port of Everett

The Port of Everett, located on Port Gardner Bay at the mouth of the Snohomish River in Washington, is a significant commercial and economic hub on the West Coast. Established in 1918, it has grown to become the third-largest container port in the state, trailing only Tacoma and Seattle. The port plays a critical role in regional and international trade, supporting nearly $21 billion in U.S. exports every year, making it the #2 export customs district in Washington and #5 on the West Coast. Its strategic position serves not only Pacific Northwest industries but also operates as a vital link for the aerospace sector, including supporting Boeing’s oversized aircraft parts logistics. The Port of Everett features deep-water berths, extensive cargo handling capabilities, and the largest public marina on the West Coast, with more than 2,300 slips. Dedicated to serving both commercial and community interests, the port also provides significant public access, recreational opportunities, and waterfront real estate that contributes to the cultural and economic significance of the surrounding region.
