Eventful Week of Cruise Ship Arrivals for Falmouth.

A&P Falmouth has experienced an eventful week of cruise ship arrivals, coinciding with the annual Falmouth Week festivities.

A&P welcomed passengers from five impressive ships: the Seven Seas Splendor, Europa, Caribbean Princess, Spirit of Adventure, and Regal Princess. Visitors enjoyed an array of activities, exploring both the town and the scenic Cornish coastline.

The Seven Seas Splendor made its first visit of the season to Falmouth today, arriving at 7am with 715 passengers aboard. Most guests took advantage of the free shuttle service into town, while others explored scenic destinations such as St Ives, The Roseland Peninsula, and St Michael's Mount.

The Europa also arrived in Falmouth this morning, docking at Queens Wharf at 8am for the second and final time this season. The 351 passengers on board enjoyed a variety of excursions while others took advantage of the sunny weather, taking shuttle buses into town or spending time at the beach.

Carrying 3,146 passengers, the Caribbean Princess made its fourth visit to Falmouth this year. Guests were tendered to County Wharf pontoon and took full advantage of Falmouth Week's many attractions, including extreme sports, market stalls, carousels, and live music. Caribbean Princess is set to return for its fifth and final call at the end of the month.

The Spirit of Adventure arrived at County Wharf with 944 passengers on board. A highlight of the visit was a special performance by the Newquay-based local choir, Oll an Gwella, hosted by A&P. The choir sang a selection of Cornish, folk, seasonal, and shanty songs, raising over £500 for charity.

Marking its first and only call to Falmouth this year, the Regal Princess brought over 3,700 passengers to the town, the largest number of visitors this season. Guests were tendered ashore and had the opportunity to visit some of Cornwall’s most popular attractions, including Lands’ End, St Michael’s Mount, Lanhydrock House, and St Ives.

With three-quarters of the cruise season now complete, Falmouth has 13 more scheduled visits remaining. A&P and the town of Falmouth look forward to continuing to welcome visitors from around the world.
