Following on from a record-breaking year in 2006, the Dover Cruise Port is gearing itself up for one of its busiest seasons. 

Kate O’Hara, Head of Commercial and Marketing, Port of Dover said: “The growth in the port’s cruise business reflects the increasing popularity in ex-UK cruise vacations and we are well positioned to grow with the trend with our two dedicated liner terminals which enjoy good access by sea and road combined with a wealth of landmark tourist sites for shore visits.”

For 2007 Dover is expecting 135 cruise ship visits by Fred Olsen, Saga Cruises, Norwegian Cruise Line, Celebrity Cruisesand MSC Cruises.
