Cruise ship visits to Wales on upwards trajectory
Western Mail
|October 03, 2025
THE number of cruise ships visiting Wales has more than doubled since 2021 but fallen slightly on last year, according to new figures.
The Welsh Government said Wales welcomed 84 cruise ships in 2025, compared to 41 in 2021. In 2024 there were 96. The year-on-year fall has been put down to changes in itineraries and bad weather.
Wales offers cruise operators and passengers access to the ports of Cardiff, Swansea, Milford Haven, Fishguard and Holyhead.
Holyhead, which has facilities capable of accommodating vessels up to 300m in length, handled 55 of the 84 ships that visited Wales this year.
For larger ships, the port's anchorage system allows passengers to be transferred via tender vessels to the marina, ensuring even the world’s largest vessels can bring visitors to experience north Wales.
