Hundreds of visitors arrived for a day in Dorset as the latest cruise ship sailed into Portland Port.
Oceania’s Marina arrived this morning carrying 1,258 passengers from the USA.
On board the cruise ship are bars and lounges, a casino, swimming pool, spa and even a library.
A total of 44 cruise ships in total are expected to dock at the port throughout the season bringing just over 62,000 passengers into Portland.
Over the last 10 years the numbers have grown substantially from just four calls and 2,000 passengers in 2009 to the record-breaking figures for 2019.
