Yep.
Port Canaveral is composed of three primary turning basins and facilities
located along the east-west oriented Inner Reach of the Entrance Channel.
The Port is a multiple-use facility composed of cruise ship berths, cargo
berths and US Navy and Military Sealift Command berths. The West Turning Basin
is used by Cruise ships and the US Coast Guard. The Central Turning Basin
is jointly used by commercial, US Navy and MSC vessels. The Trident Turning
Basin is used by US Navy Fleet Ballistic Missile submarine forces. The
berths situated on the Inner Reach of the Entrance Channel are used primarily
by Cruise Ships, cargo ships and tankers. The US Navy and Military Sealift
Command facilities in the Central and Trident Turning Basins are of primary
importance to this evaluation.
The primary US Navy facilities at Port Canaveral consist of the Trident
Wharf on the east side of the Trident (East) Turning Basin, the Poseidon Wharf
on the southeast side of the Central Turning Basin, and the Military
Traffic Management Command (MTMC) Wharf on the north side of the Central Turning
Basin.
