The Foss Waterway Seaport's mission is to "celebrate Puget Sound's rich maritime heritage — past, present and future." To accomplish this mission, the Seaport provides our community such diverse programs as K–20 marine and environmental science education; a maritime museum telling the rich stories of Puget Sound's working waterfront; a heritage boat building shop; children's exhibits with engaging, interactive learning stations; and 1,200 feet of dock space for guest moorage.
The Seaport also collaborates with the region's organizations and businesses to host some of Tacoma's most memorable public gatherings in our compelling waterfront event spaces.
