About This Seaport
Fresh Del Monte and World Direct Shipping are among the names that keep SeaPort Manatee busy on Florida's Gulf Coast near Tampa Bay. Ten deep-draft berths handle liquid and dry bulk, containers, breakbulk, heavy-lift and project cargo, with liquid bulk (about 6.4 million tons in 2025) and fertilizers leading the mix. The port set an all-time throughput record of roughly 11.9 million tons in fiscal 2025, while tropical fruit increasingly arrives as breakbulk rather than in boxes. As the closest US deepwater port to the Panama Canal, Manatee offers short transits to Central America and regular container links to Mexico. Road and rail connect the terminals to Tampa and central Florida. Shippers needing high container volumes and global services still look to Tampa, JAXPORT and Miami.
