The Port of Willapa Harbor was formed by the vote of the people of North Pacific County on May 31, 1928. The construction of the Port Dock between the cities of Raymond and South Bend soon followed with the dedication ceremony on October 8, 1930 (which also marked the official opening of the Raymond-Aberdeen highway). The primary function of the Port was to provide docking facilities and service for shipping logs and lumber in Raymond and to support commercial fishing and oystering in Tokeland and Bay Center.
In the intervening years the Port has expanded to include the Willapa Harbor Airport, the Dick Taylor Industrial Park and the Stan Hatfield South Fork Industrial Park. The Port currently has 31 industrial and commercial tenants and provides moorage in Raymond, BayCenter and Tokeland.
