It's dredging time!🌊🚧

We know a lot of you will want to come down and take a look — and we don’t blame you.

Just please remember that this is a working dock. There will be cranes, boats, equipment, and people actively working. If you come down to watch, please stay out of the work areas, give the cranes and boats plenty of room, and follow directions from the crews and Port staff.

We want everyone to be able to enjoy watching the work while keeping our operators, crews, and visitors safe!

It’s that time of year again! 🌊⚓️

The dredge and barges will begin arriving Monday (August 31st), and crews will be working to clear the channel for approximately 7 days.

We know dredging can create some extra challenges and inconvenience for those using the Port, and we appreciate your patience and understanding while this important work gets done. Keeping our channel clear is critical to maintaining safe and reliable access to the harbor!
