Dun Laoghaire is set to host more than 90 cruise liner visits between April and October this year as the harbour publishes its cruise schedule for the 2023 season.

Beginning with the Viking Venus on 5 April and closing out the season with the Norwegian Star on 20 October, the harbour has 92 visits booked for the season thus far (subject to change).

That figure represents a 40% increase on 2022’s cruise call numbers, when 65 visits were on the books.

Some of these will be repeat visitors — with the Norwegian Dawn slated for and exceptionally busy season with 13 calls from May to October.

“We are all looking forward to a very busy cruise season,” Dun Laoghaire Harbour Master Capt Harry Duggan says.
