Pier 38 Fishing Village Project

The Domestic Commercial Fishing Village proposed for Piers 36-38 will support a vital industry by allowing consolidation of services now scattered throughout Honolulu's waterfront.  It will also permit more efficiency in the handling of seafood products.

These are artist renderings of what the Domestic Commercial Fishing Village could look like.

The project will be constructed in phases.  Initially, the state will construct a concrete loading/unloading dock at Pier 38 to allow direct, efficient transfer of fresh seafood from the commercial fishing fleet into an adjacent fish auction house.

In addition to pier improvements, the state intends to construct infrastructure, including roadways and utilities, and subdivide landside parcels for development by individual seafood and fresh fish processing wholesalers.

The Oahu Commercial Harbors 2020 Master Plan envisions a fully-developed Domestic Commercial Fishing Village including an ice house, fueling facility, loading dock, fish auction house, fresh fish processing area, supply shop and potentially a facility for boat maintenance and repair.
