Located just nine nautical miles (16.7km) from the Atlantic Ocean, the Blount Island Marine Terminal has 6,600 linear feet (2,012m) of deep water berths.

This 754-acre terminal is JAXPORT's largest container facility and one of the largest vehicle import/export centers in the United States. The terminal also handles Ro/Ro, heavy lift, breakbulk and liquid bulk cargoes.

Blount Island has one 112-ton whirly crane and six container cranes (three 50-ton cranes, one 45-ton crane and two 40-ton cranes), with two additional cranes planned for purchase this year. The terminal also offers 240,000-square feet of transit shed space and a 90,000-square-foot Container Freight Station for cross-dock efficiency.

Major highways are easily accessible from Blount Island, which is located less than one mile from I-295 (State Road 9-A) and only minutes from I-95 and I-10. Plus, I-75 is only a one hour drive west. The efficient movement of cargo is facilitated by the terminal's on-dock rail served directly by CSX Corporation.
