This year, 13 439 guests opted for half-day and full-day shore excursions.

The most remarkable event of the year was the call of the Queen Mary 2 on the occasion of the transatlantic race ‘The Bridge 2017’, around 1700 passengers embarked from the very mythic transatlantic cruise terminal, as it was initially designed.

2018 program promises to be another fantastic season with 37 calls and over than 60.000 guests. 9 maiden calls and the very expected return of the Disney Magic on July 28th.
Major event of the year, Cherbourg Cruise Terminal will be fitted with a new air bridge gangway, in the first semester of the year!
