SeaPort Manatee is a county-owned deepwater seaport located in the eastern Gulf of Mexico at the entrance to Tampa Bay in northern Manatee County, Florida. It is one of Florida's largest deepwater seaports and also regarded as the closest U.S. deepwater seaport to the Panama Canal.[4][5] The port handles a variety of bulk, breakbulk, containerized, and heavy-lift project cargoes.
SeaPort Manatee generates more than $5.1 billion in annual economic impact while supporting more than 37,000 direct and indirect jobs, all without the benefit of ad-valorem taxes.[6]
