Ports of Call
Cruise from Southampton
- Portland: Isle-tied port with Dorset cliffs and quarry stone heritage. Visit Portland Castle, walk the Bill lighthouse path, or explore nearby Weymouth’s harbour. Quiet seascapes meet coastal industry.
- Falmouth: Deep harbour with Cornish charm. Tour Pendennis Castle, cross to St Mawes by ferry, or enjoy cafés along the waterfront. It’s a mix of history and harbour life.
- Cork (Cobh): Colourful facades and Titanic links. Visit the heritage centre, take a train to Cork, or stop by Blarney Castle. Warmth and stories line every street.
- Dun Laoghaire: Georgian harbour and quick routes to Dublin. Walk the East Pier, browse the market, or ride the DART for museums and music. Sea and city sit side by side.
- Belfast: Maritime legacy and modern art scene. See Titanic Belfast, explore murals on a black cab tour, or stroll through the Botanic Gardens. Contrasts define the city.
- Greenock: Gateway to Glasgow’s galleries. Take the train inland, follow Clyde coastal walks, or enjoy panoramic views from Lyle Hill. Urban culture meets river calm.
- Invergordon: Highland port with murals and whisky trails. Visit Inverness, explore Loch Ness, or wander the Firth shores. The scenery speaks softly but grandly.
- Edinburgh (South Queensferry): Bridges frame the Forth. Ride into the capital for the Castle and Royal Mile, or stay local for waterfront walks. The views never tire.
- Le Havre (Paris): Modernist rebuild with Paris connections. Explore the Perret architecture, visit the André Malraux museum, or take the train to the capital—sea and city within reach.
