About This Seaport
Better known for sport fishing, its Coast Guard station and tourist ferries than for cargo, Port Aransas (US YAS) on Mustang Island still has a genuine freight role through the Aransas Terminal Company. Its multi-use marine terminal on the deep Corpus Christi Ship Channel supports offshore drilling and production logistics along with breakbulk, project and dry-bulk cargo. The town's own basin, by contrast, is shallow and geared to fishing boats and ferries rather than ships. Deep-draught vessels transit Aransas Pass (around 45–47 ft) and continue to the Port of Corpus Christi, the region's main cargo gateway. Road and rail link the area to the Texas hinterland. For containers, crude oil and bulk, Corpus Christi is the relevant port.
