St George s witnessed the unfamiliar sight of a cruise ship entering the Town Cut at approximately 7am this morning [June 14] when the flagship of the Oceania Cruises fleet, Regatta made her way to Penno s Wharf.
The cruise ship is expected to bring hundreds of visitors to the island, and will spend the day in St George s with a planned departure of 6pm today.

Speaking last year about the ability of cruise ships to enter St George s, then Minister of Transport Terry Lister said , “Ships more than 680’ long and 94’ wide, depending on handling characteristics, cannot safely navigate through Town Cut in St. George’s.
“The Ministry recently completed a study of Bermuda’s Shipping Channels to accommodate the larger cruise ships being built today. A section holland america cruise ships of the study addresses the issue of the availability of smaller cruise ships.”
holland america cruise ships “The analysis revealed there are 165 cruise ships currently in operation that are available to serve the North American and European markets. Of that total, 139 are too large to transit Town Cut in St. George’s, leaving only 26 that can successfully transit Town Cut.
A study conducted about widening the Town Cut to accommodate larger cruise ships indicated that it could involve the virtual demolition of three islands, and could cost between $48 and $71 million and would not be completed until 2017.
