The pinnacle of class the MS Rotterdam arrives in Plymouth Sound.
Over 9,523 people viewed our webcam today to view the MS Rotterdam at the Plymouth Breakwater from across the UK and globe.
The MS Rotterdam is part of the Holland America Line, and Westward Shipping News captured her arrival at the Plymouth Breakwater this morning.
The huge cruise liner visited Plymouth last October, celebrating the 150th anniversary of the inaugural passenger liner the SS Rotterdam, that called in Plymouth in 1887 en-route from Rotterdam, Holland to New York.
That maiden voyage saw the cruise liner pick up additional passengers and mail in the Port – before setting off across the Atlantic.
The huge MS Rotterdam is one of the biggest liners to visit Plymouth so far, and expected to bring 2,600 passengers, and 1,000 crew, with city tourist bosses laying out the red carpet for the visitors.
Other confirmed visits to the city this month include the Nobel Caledonia’s Ocean Nova, and next month the 1,000-capacity Spirit of Discovery, dropping anchor in the Sound.

Many of the visitors can be seen around the Hoe and Barbican in groups, and especially a spectacle for other Plymouth leisure craft out on the water today.
