After a couple of seasons without cruise ships visiting St Peter Port (Guernsey Island, Channel Islands UK) this vital part of the tourism is expected to be reinstated for next year.

As one of the major destinations in the British Isles, Guernsey will see its first return call on April 14 with the arrival of Hapag-Lloyd's boat Hanseatic Spirit.

The last call to Guernsey’s St Peter Port is scheduled on October 30, with the visit of Vasco da Gama (Nicko).

The cruise season expects to see cruise ship call numbers returning to pre-COVID levels.

According to a Cruise Britain spokesperson, "Guernsey is an integral part of Britain’s cruise mix and was easily in the top ten transit cruise ports in 2019 as it provides a unique blend of elements."

"The distinctive multi-island offering attracts operators looking to offer their guests a continental-flavour combination of scenery, history and beaches. A successful 2021 cruise restart in the UK has brought renewed focus on the British Isles product and Guernsey now really has the opportunity to build on existing business.“
