This in from Cowes Harbour Commission. The information below is going out to the Cruising media and leaflets are about to be sent to companies that organiser cruises.
A spokesperson from Cowes Harbour Commission told OnTheWight, “We’ve already had encouraging interest.” Ed
Cowes Harbour Commission is working proactively with Destination Cowes and the Island’s tourism organisation Visit Isle of Wight to promote Cowes as a unique destination port-of-call, encouraged by the rising demand in the cruise ship market, including growth in the Northern European luxury cruise market.
Cowes offers exceptional visitor appeal with cruise ship passengers able to visit world famous tourist attractions such as Queen Victoria’s magnificent Osborne House in East Cowes, the palatial royal residence used as the setting for the major feature film Victoria and Abdul.
