Prince Rupert Harbour : Profile

Docking

Prince Rupert is principally a commercial port, both for cargo and cruise ships. It is a useful base before cruising on to either Alaska and the Queen Charlottes. Although fishing boats are catered for, comfortable berths for small cruising yachts are not so plentiful.
