Matching cruise industry growth and cruise port capacities
Cruise Europe and its more than 100 member ports between Gibraltar in the South, Kirkenes in the North and Lulea in the Baltic still has the potential for growth. Only 75% of the potential cruise ports along the Atlantic coast are members; also one has to include the potential of the cruise ports in Greenland and the area east of the North Cape. The tourist organisations of the ports, the regions, the countries can help as members to make Cruise Europe stronger in marketing the destination Northern Europe to the cruise lines.
The aim for Cruise Europe is to match the ongoing growth of the cruise industry in offering better infrastructure in the member ports, which means more cruise terminals, or to point out the diversity of the many destinations and attractions in Northern Europe.
Cruise Europe has to open a dialogue with the cruise lines with the intention to spread the growing number of cruise ships and the even bigger cruise passenger capacities over more ports, over more cruise areas, over more countries. The success of the Baltic is also possible in the areas of West Europe, of UK & Ireland and of Norway and Iceland. Cruise lines have to be convinced that all four cruise areas in Northern Europe have equal attractions and many good ports to host the growing cruise fleet.
The members of Cruise Europe have to market their cruise area as an attractive cruise destination in its own. To sell just one port to the cruise line does not help. Cruise ports have to work together to form an itinerary, which works for the cruise lines.
Despite the global recession the cruise industry will grow because of the high customer satisfaction. Nowhere customers can find such a perfect holiday: visiting many new destinations, being served with great food in an excellent manner, enjoying state-of-the-art cruise ships with outstanding entertainment, wellness, relaxation and fun. Cruise Europe is part of this cruise product and partner of the cruise lines. Let’s grow with our customers. |

Akureyri
Akureyri sits on the shores of Iceland’s longest fjord, Eyjafjordur. It is the country´s second-largest town and the self-proclaimed capital of the North. With a population of just 19,600, there are many things that set Akureyri apart. The nearby Lake Mývatn for example is set in a bewitchingly beautiful area, featuring rock columns, geothermal vents and the popular Mývatn Nature Baths. Located approximately one hour away from the port, Lake Mývatn consistently proves itself to be the most popular shore excursion for cruise passengers visiting Akureyri. Another popular tour is the short flight to Grimsey Island - the only part of Iceland to cross the Arctic Circle. The small island has excellent tourist facilities, an interesting variety of landscapes and is home to a huge bird population during the summer months.

Alesund
Ålesund has a beautiful setting across several islands stretching out into the sea, and is situated at the very entrance of the UNESCO World Heritage site, the Geirangerfjord. Above all Ålesund is internationally renowned for its unique architecture in the Art Nouveau style. The town was devastated by fire on a winter’s night in 1904, laying 850 houses in ashes and leaving 10,000 people homeless. The new Ålesund ‘rose from the ashes’ in the continental turn-of-the-century style with a myriad of turrets, spires and medieval ornaments.
Aksla, the town mountain, offers breathtaking views across the Art Nouveau town, islands and fjords. The Art Nouveau Centre portrays the unique position Ålesund has in Norwegian architectural history and the Atlantic Sea-Park, one of the largest aquariums in Northern Europe, is located in Ålesund.

Klaksvik is the second biggest town of the Faroe Island, and the biggest white fish town too. The town is located on Bordoy, which is one of the northernmost islands. Klaksvik is located between two inlets lying back to back. It is an important harbour with fishing industry, and a modern fishing-fleet.
Originally four farms were at the location where Klaksvik is now. By time they grew into four villages that finally merged to what now is called Klaksvik. What really kicked off the development towards a town was the set up af a centralised store for all the northern islands on the location.
The church Christians-kirkjan dates from 1963. Its architecture is unconventional with a detached bell-frame. It is made of Faroese basalt and wood. Inside the church a Faroese rowing boat is hanging down from the ceiling. The font is made af a 4000 years old heathen sacrificial bowl originating from Denmark.

Voted by Nathional Geographic as one of the most appealing destinations in the world, Lofoten is an Arctic island group that has been a cruise destination since 1889.

The landscape is striking in its variety: wildly beautiful places of marsh and rock, green fields and still lakes, dramatic mountains and white sand beaches.
Lofoten is dotted with picturesque villages and fish-drying racks, as stockfish – dried cod – has been the main export since the Middle Ages. The five main islands are linked by road and you can easily cross all five and return in a day. Passengers can also disembark at one port and rejoin the ship at another. Various national and international publications have named different places in Lofoten “the most beautiful beach in Norway”, “the most beautiful islands in the world” and “the most beautiful view in the world”

Oslo
It’s this combination of stunning nature and capital city vibe with world class museums, food and attractions which makes Oslo such a unique cruise destination.
The capital of Norway with its backdrop of hills, lies at the head of the Oslofjord, a 40-mile stretch of sheltered water surrounded by wooded hills dotted with summer houses that narrows dramatically about half-way up. Dominating the harbour is Akershus Fortress, a medieval stronghold and royal residence built around year 1300, while the twin towers of the town hall face onto an exciting waterfront with shops, restaurants and pubs. Among the special attractions of Oslo are the spectacular Opera House resembling an enormous iceberg, the Viking Ship Museum at Museum Peninsula Bygdoy, housing discoveries from Gokstad, Oseberg and Tune as well as other finds from Viking tombs around the Oslofjord.
Cruise vessels can dock at a great location in the city center.

Saudarkrokur
When the buzz of an exciting, new Icelandic port called Saudarkrokur began to surface in late 2018, it soon became apparent that this relatively unknown Icelandic cruise port was definitely one to watch!
Well placed on Iceland’s north coast and in the shelter of the Skagafjordur fjord, Saudarkrokur currently offers one berthing space alongside for cruise vessels up to 200 metres in length, along with two additional anchorages – one 0,5 nm away and the other 0,8 nm away.
Worth noting is that an additional floating tender pier is planned for March 2020 in readiness of the port’s first operational cruise season.
The port is equipped with WiFi and washroom facilities and is 15 minutes walking distance from the Old Town with its museums and quaint streets.
Worth a mention is the ‘Verslun Haraldur Júlíussonar’ - a wonderful, time-traveller style General Store on Adalgata that has been in business since 1919 and where the gas is still pumped by hand.

Seydisfjordur
Seydisfjordur harbour provides an ideal destination for cruise ships. The peaceful village, shaped by Norwegian enterpreneurs over a century ago, lies sheltered by dramatic snow-flecked mountains.
The colorful, Norwegian-style wooden houses render this village unique in Iceland, and walking trails around town, out along the coast, or by the Fjardará River allow for many plesurable and relaxing experiences. Seydisfjördur is distinguished by its close proximity to wild nature – some might even consider it on the verge of the uninhabitable. The climate and its harsh tendencies have shaped those living here.Seydisfjordur is home to approximately 700 residents, who have traditionally lived off fishing. In recent years, however, tourism has growing. Seyðisfjörður is one of Lonely Planet’s top pick in Iceland. A part of Ben Stiller's movie " The secret life of Walter Mitty" was filmed in Seydisfjordur, a YouTube clip from the film can be found here below.

Siglufjordur
Siglufjörður is Iceland’s northenmost town and is a historic fishing town who’s fame and fortune has always been linked to the ebb and flow of the fishing industry. A tiny shark fishing village in 1900, Siglufjörður soon became one of the largest towns in Iceland and the undisputed capital of herring fishing in the Atlantic. Although the herring has disappeared, the town bears the distinct imprint of “The Herring Era”.
Siglufjörður is along with the community of Ólafsfjörður a part of The Municipality of Fjallabyggð, which came into being when the two communities were merged in 2006. The area maintains a flourishing cultural activity and is known for its dynamic and vibrant extracurricular activities. There are interesting galleries and artist studios to be visited in town.
Since 2002 Siglufjörður has welcomed cruise ship passengers to visit this small town at the edge of North Iceland that is full of well kept history.

The Cruise Europe Port Handbook
Cruise Europe has 120 members in Northern and Atlantic Europe, in a geographical spread from Lisbon - Iceland - North Cape and St. Petersburg.
Our four very different regions offer a diversity of experiences as to history, culture and events.
White nights in the north, hot sunny days in the south. Very old and new exciting architecture as well as very old and new exciting art.
Museums where the guest can get an insight into all aspects of Europe's history, traditions, handicrafts and present day life. All regions give the guest an opportunity to feel the beat of the European cities, shop for the unique design of that special area and savour the national food and drink of the countries where the ships dock.
Nature in Europe is everything from pristine meadows to busy beaches, great coast lines, fjords and islands, walks in birch woods or cypress groves and well-kept golf courses - each with its own characteristic.
Cruising Europe is a movable feast and has become a popular destination over the past decade - there is still a lot to be discovered. Europe is no longer only a summer destination. Cruise lines visit our ports all year.
Christmas markets around Europe have become popular events that attract cruise calls, and the number of winter cruises looking for the northern light have increased dramatically the last few years.
Europe is a region with good infrastructure. Our members keep investing in piers, terminals, waste reception facilities and new shore tours. Every month we bring the broader cruise industry news of port developments or new infrastructure up and down our region.
In a world of geopolitical challenges, it's fair to say that Europe is politically stable.
The lines are not likely to face massive disruption to their itineraries in our region due to political issues if they decide to deploy their vessels in Northern & Atlantic Europe.
The Cruise Europe website and port handbook will give you a good general overview and a deeper insight into all the possibilities and temptations of Cruise Europe's unique destinations.
The key thing is that it can be updated regularly. The cruise lines can choose a region, a country or an itinerary. By choosing this way of presenting our wonderful region we have modern tool for the benefit of the cruise lines.
After all, that is what Cruise Europe is all about. Bringing the members and the cruise lines together.
