Hancock County Port and Harbor Commission (HCPHC) is on point to advise our leaders about the strategic advantages our county holds for both scientific and military groups and to report on the extensive activities they conduct every day in Hancock County. With approximately 50% of county land and water dedicated to NASA and Department of Defense operations, Hancock County hosts one of the largest, most valuable, joint military centers in the United States. We are deeply proud and supportive of the military and space agency operations here. As the economic development agency for Hancock County, HCPHC is constantly ready to welcome military and civilian Department of Defense personnel with professionalism and genuine Southern hospitality.
