The Port of St. Petersburg opened in 1925 in hopes of it becoming a major shipping port. In the beginning the port was used mainly for the use of the U.S. Coast Guard from 1927 up until it was abandoned in 1933. However the base was reopened in 1939 due to World War II. Following World War II the port was used as a dry dock for ships. In 1977, the interest for turning the St. Petersburg port into a cruise port was rumored among the city. However shortly after problems arose when the depth of the port was revealed to be shallower than most ports such as the Port Tampa Bay and Port of Miami, but the city attempted anyway to get a cruise line tenant. In 1987 the city finally got a cruise line by the name of Scandinavian World Cruises that offered their ship the Scandinavian Star to the port where it stayed until 1991. Following in 1993 another cruise line from Ukraine took up the spot, but like the Scandinavian cruise before the Ukraine cruise liner didn't stay long. From then on out the Port of St. Petersburg has been struggling to get commercial usage.
