Douglas Harbor is a harbor off the coast of Douglas Island in Juneau, Alaska.[1]

In the 2002 regular election, Juneau-area voters approved the issue and sale of bonds totaling $15 million for improving the borough's harbors, utilities, and parks systems.[2][3] $7.1 million was allocated for the harbors, including Douglas.[4]

In January 2009, winter weather caused a boat in the harbor to sink.[5]
