caption_attribution_description: English: Bucksport Sporting Goods is one of the last remaining indicators that the town of Bucks Port ever was here, about 2.5 miles (4 km) southwest of downtown Eureka, on Humboldt Bay. Mural on side of building deliberately obscured due to no Freedom of Panorama in the United States.
context_page_description: Bucksport was a town in Humboldt County, California. The original location was 2.5 miles southwest of downtown Eureka, on Humboldt Bay about 5 miles northeast of entrance. at an elevation of 16 feet. Prior to American settlement a Wiyot village named Kucuwalik stood here.
  The townsite was laid out in 1850 by David A. Buck who was a member of the Josiah Gregg party that explored the bay in 1849. A post office operated at Bucksport from 1855 to 1863.
  Fort Humboldt was founded on the bluff over Bucksport in 1853 under the command of Brevet Lieutenant Colonel Robert C. Buchanan.
  Bucksport was a separate community in the 19th century, before better port facilities and political dominance gave the then northern town of Eureka predominance. The town disappeared by 1870 with the area that once comprised the town remaining only as a neighborhood of southern Eureka.
