San Pedro Background San Pedro, which is actually part of the city of Los Angeles, has a long seafaring history. Spanish ships began using San Pedro Bay in the 1540s. It continued to be used as an unofficial harbor until 1848, when improvements to the area prompted San Pedro to become a major port for the West Coast. In 1909, Los Angeles annexed San Pedro and the neighboring town of Wilmington. Along with Terminal Island, these three cities became home to the official Port of Los Angeles. Los Angeles Harbor is one of the nation's largest deep-water ports. Each year, millions of shippers and cruise-goers pass through the Port of Los Angeles, which is the busiest cargo terminal in the United States.
