ABOUT US

About
Liverpool Cruise Port

Liverpool is a sought-after cruise destination, welcoming visitors from around the world with its distinctive charm and appeal. Its convenient location makes it an ideal stop for travelers seeking unique attractions and memorable experiences.

Sail from the Sounds of Legends

Situated in the Irish Sea, Liverpool Cruise Port is a key maritime gateway in the UK. This location provides excellent connectivity to Northern European and British and Irish cruise itineraries, making it an ideal port for both transit and turnaround calls.. With easy access to Liverpool John Lennon Airport and Manchester Airport, both within an hour’s drive, the port offers seamless connections for cruise passengers.

The port can accommodate large cruise vessels up to 350 meters in length. Planned enhancements include a new floating dock and terminal building, which will increase capacity and allow for the simultaneous berthing of two large ships, accommodating over 7,000 passengers a day. This investment, subject to the granting of the appropriate permits and licenses, will also include additional retail and hospitality offerings, catering to both cruise passengers and local visitors, and enhancing the overall passenger experience.
