There are creaky wooden walkways with empty sections where boats can rest.  There are a few buildings surrounding this area that sell supplies to sailors.

I am a shop keeper who got lucky. I read books on how to stay in business. I have been personally summoned by the king before.
Depends what goods you are seeking! The supplies for my voyage. The king is expecting me to set sail soon. Well let me know what you need and I can take a look, I sent a list over with your assistant yesterday. If I don't get underway soon the weather won't be in my favor. Hmm let me go have a look for that list then, sorry for the inconvenience.  Even worse than the weather is sea monsters. Sea monsters you say? Aye. They tend to live in storms. Bet you don't believe in them though do you landlubber? I thought they were just the stuff of legend, is all! I nearly lost my boat and my life to a sea monster last year. What kind of sea monster? Also let me get you those supplies! The worst kind. It was terrifying.
