Dominica / Special Interests / Cruise Ship

By Sara Macefield

Dominica is seen as a cruise stop unlike most others as the island is so natural and undeveloped. However, its ability to cater for large and small ships means it is visited by larger cruise lines such as P&O Cruises, Celebrity Cruises and Norwegian Cruise Line, plus larger deluxe lines such as Azamara Club Cruises and Oceania Cruises. They tend to moor at the capital, Roseau while small ships may dock here or at Portsmouth in the north.

Ships we recommend are owned by the following companies:

Regent Seven Seas Cruises - Its three ships exude spacious elegance and plush surroundings along with first-rate service and outstanding cuisine.

Silversea - Seriously upmarket and unashamedly opulent, this family-owned line’s six ships offer all-suite accommodation, first-rate service and exquisite cuisine.
