The Port of Inverness (Port Code:GBIVS) is one of Scotland's most sheltered and deep natural ports which is located on the east coast of Scotland, at Inverness, Highland council area, at the mouth of the River Ness. The port is owned and operated by Inverness Harbour Trust, established by Act of Parliament in 1847. The port was first recorded in history in 1249. Recent years have seen cargo close to 800,000 tonnes per annum and over 300 vessels visiting the port.
The port trades with Scandinavia, the EU and the rest of the UK. Goods handled include oil and fuel, turbines for wind energy converters, timber, round logs, board, wood chips, coal, salt, animal feed, frozen fish, fish oil and other goods. Due to recent expansion the port can now handle cargoes of turbine blades of length up to 50 m. There are extensive lay down areas as well as covered storage facilities. The port has easy access to the A9 road and the hinterland of Inverness, the capital of the Scottish Highlands. There is also ready access to the railway system from Inverness station.
