The Port of Everett has a huge marina with more than 2000 ships. The Port serves as deep-water commercial seaport, receiving nearly 200,000 short tons of cargo on a yearly basis. In a recent redevelopment, the Port Gardner Wharf was built and the northern section of waterfront was developed with condominiums, retail shops and maritime businesses.

The waterfront is a major area for the cities events and activities like the Everett Farmer's Market, held every Sunday, and the Waterfront Concert Series, held every Thursday night. Public events include the Everett Coho Derby, held in September at Tenth Street Park, and the Fresh Paint Festival of Artists, held during August on the marina promenade.

The Port of Everett owns the man-made Jetty Island, a narrow, 3.2 km long island with strong winds and wide flat sandy beaches, a famous place for kite-surfing and skimboarding. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers constructed Jetty Island in the early part of the 1900s in a failed effort to create a freshwater harbor. The island presently serves as a park, accessible by ferry. From the month of June through the Labor Day holiday weekend, the city provides free ferry service from the 10th Street Boat launch to Jetty Island.
