Corporate Profile
Hutchison Ports FHC, from inception, was the driving force behind the development of Grand Bahama Island, The Bahamas. This critical gateway to Grand Bahama Island, provides a first-class passenger and tourist experience, while providing a safe environment for employees, passengers and visitors alike.
Hutchison Ports FHC is privately owned and operated through a joint venture between Hutchison Ports and Port Group Limited, and is one of the largest man-made harbours in the world and the deepest harbour in the region.
The entrance channel and turning basin are dredged to a depth of 16m (52 ft.), and there is a huge expanse of sheltered waters. A diverse mix of businesses utilize the services of Freeport Harbour for cruise and day ferry visits, roll-on/roll-off facilities for containerized and LTL cargo, car transshipment, wet docking and ship repair facilities. Our facilities can accommodate three cruise ships, five roll-on/roll-off vessels, and two 900-ft wet-docking berths. Vessels with a maximum draft of 30ft can be accommodated alongside. Cruise lines of up to 1,000ft, length overall, can be facilitated with tugboat and pilot services available 24-hours.
