About This Seaport
Port Townsend, the Victorian seaport on the Quimper Peninsula at the entrance to Puget Sound, today lives mainly on boatbuilding, marine trades and passenger ferries rather than commercial breakbulk or container handling. Its very shallow approach — a channel of only about 1.8 m — rules out larger freighters in any case; activity centres on repairs, wooden-boat and yacht building, and local traffic. General-cargo relevance is therefore limited. For container and breakbulk freight in the region, the ports of Seattle and Tacoma (Northwest Seaport Alliance) are the right choice.
