The natural cove offers safe shelter from Chatham Strait storms but has no commercial cargo facilities and no road access. Supplies arrive by barge or floatplane; for commercial liner and container traffic, Sitka and Ketchikan are the nearest ports.","url":"https://www.freight-academy.com/en/information/seaports/port-alexander-port-us-ptd","markdownMirror":"https://www.freight-academy.com/api/md/seaports/en/port-alexander-port-us-ptd","source":null,"provider":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Freight Academy","url":"https://www.freight-academy.com"},"quickSummary":"Port Alexander · (UN/LOCODE: US PTD) · United States · Very Small · 3.4 m"}
