Portland has a surprising amount of commercial activity for an island of its size.

The port and harbour are are home to many industrial as well as marine, tourist and water sports businesses.

Portland stone is still quarried on the island by several long running firms and a number of heavy and light engineering and defence companies are based here.

You'll also find doctors, dentists, estate agents, solicitors, builders, plumbers, plasterers and electricians to name but a few.
