The seaport operations of Gulfport are very efficient because of the port’s strategic location on the Gulf of Mexico. It is only 16 miles from international shipping lanes and five nautical miles from the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway. Ships departing from the harbor reach international waters within an hour.
Historically, the French controlled the area until 1803, when the land stolen from the native people was sold by France to the United States in a massive deal called The Louisiana Purchase. The United States government paid $15 million to France for 828,000 square miles, which was about four cents per square mile.
This deal doubled the size of the United States and made westward expansion possible to take more native people’s land. The Indian Removal Act of 1830 forced the native people to leave the area and move to Oklahoma. This land grab was done by the European settlers who wanted the land for cotton plantations that they could exploit using enslaved labor.
In contemporary times, the city is best known for oil, gasoline, diesel, and other important petroleum products that ship to and from this port. Also, much of the green agricultural products from South/Central America and Mexico come through this seaport.
