The Port of Newport is located on the central Oregon coast in the City of Newport, Lincoln County seat and major business/economic hub of the area, and encompasses approximately 59 square miles and has an estimated population of 10,800 persons. Port boundaries reach north to Otter Rock, east up to six miles inland, south to Seal Rock, and west to the Pacific Ocean. Commercial and sport fishing, fish processing, shipping, tourism, recreation, and lumber and wood processing are the area’s major industries.

Newport’s prime location, deep-water berths and diverse handling capabilities continue to attract new business across a range of trades. Recent improvements to transport links offer dual-carriageway access to both Junctions 24 and 28 of the M4. ABP has made significant investments to develop the port, such as in steel facilities to enable growth in both import and export volumes, as well as in new warehousing facilities, open storage areas and a new rail link.
