About This Seaport
Fish — landed, processed and trucked out — is what moves through Port Union, a harbour on Catalina Harbour at the head of the Bonavista Peninsula in Newfoundland. The town is notable as the only union-built community in Canada, founded in 1916 by William Coaker's Fishermen's Protective Union. With a cargo-pier depth of about 5 m and no UN/LOCODE, the port has limited relevance for containerised, customs-cleared or international general cargo. Forwarders handling overseas freight for the region use St. John's, with Argentia as a secondary option. Hinterland access is by road across the Bonavista Peninsula.
