The sheltered port works a single Ro-Ro berth plus a private wharf at a fish cannery, and its 4.5-metre channel limits it to smaller vessels; it is a fishing and multipurpose port rather than a container gateway. The wider system also includes El Rama on the Escondido river and El Bluff at the bay entrance.
