Quincy Port District

The Quincy Port District is located in the city of Quincy, Massachusetts, forming a key part of the southern Boston Harbor region. Encompassing Quincy Bay, Town River Bay, and the surrounding waterfront, Quincy benefits from an extensive 27-mile coastline and diverse maritime activity. The port area supports a mixture of commercial and recreational uses, hosting activities from deep draft shipping, large liquid and bulk cargo handling, and commercial construction traffic to recreational boating, fishing, and ferry services. Marina Bay, situated within Quincy, is one of the largest marinas on the East Coast and acts as a central hub for both leisure and passenger vessel movement. The port's proximity to Greater Boston, major shipping lanes, and the Boston Harbor Islands Federal Park underpins its economic and logistical significance. The area has responded to rising regional demand by hosting a variety of marine service providers, ferry operations, and freight terminals, making the Quincy Port District a critical maritime gateway in Massachusetts.
