Coast Guard Captain of the Port San Juan announced, Wednesday, that San Juan Port’s Pier-3 West remains closed to cruise-ships until further notice pending requested satisfactory assessment studies followed by a Coast Guard on-site inspection of the facility.
In April 2024, the Coast Guard established an operational control disallowing cruise ship operations on San Juan Harbor’s Pier-3 West, following an incident at the facility which resulted in the loss of a dolphin mooring structure just off the main pier.
Following the incident, the Coast Guard issued a Facility Inspection Requirements form CG-835(f) to San Juan Cruise Port and the Puerto Rico Ports Authority notifying the established operational control until satisfactory mooring and berthing studies on the structure were provided to the Coast Guard for evaluation.
