Plymouth is gearing up for three cruise ship visitors for May, starting with the SPIRIT OF ADVENTURE on the 5th May, the NORWEGIAN PEARL on the 6th May, and return visitor the AMERA on the 16th May.

The city is expecting to welcome just under 12,000 passengers for 2025 as demand for cruising continues to rise around the British Isles. Almost 10,000 passengers arrived by sea in 2024.
The 2025 cruise season kicked off in March with two visits by the huge cruise vessel AMBITION and will end in September with the SIRENA arriving on 18th Sept.

Plymouth has gained an international reputation for its cruise welcomes to passengers and especially its volunteer cruise ambassadors and city cruise partnerships, including Destination Plymouth, ABP Millbay Docks, Cattewater Harbour Commissioners, Plymouth City Council, and other organisations.
