Port of Skagway
The Port of Skagway, AK is the northernmost ice-free, deep-water port in North America that offers intermodal access to Pacific shipping lanes through its existing port infrastructure. Due to its strategic location, the Port of Skagway has, and continues to, provide key, year-round transportation access and capacity between the contiguous United States, the Yukon Territory, Northern British Columbia, the Northwest Territories, Northern Alaska, Asia and Europe while also accommodating a robust seasonal cruise industry for the area. The Port of Skagway supports intermodal industry needs by providing berthing space and infrastructure for barge service (bulk commodity, freight, and fuel), passenger vessels that can be over 1000 feet in length, fishing vessels, and private and pleasure crafts. The Port of Skagway also offers an uplands storage area that allows truck and rail access with connection to a heavy-weight, year-round highway network via the South Klondike Highway and an international airport via the Erik Nielsen Whitehorse International Airport in Whitehorse Yukon.
The Port of Skagway is owned and managed by two entities. The Municipality of Skagway Owns and Operates the Port of Skagway Terminal Facilities. The White Pass & Yukon Route Railroad own and operate the Railroad Dock.
Vessel owners, managers and agents, business owners and community members are encouraged to check out the resources on this website to learn more about the Port of Skagway and the Municipal Terminal facilities including doing business within the port, community plans for the port and Municipal investments into port infrastructure.
