The Antigua Cruise Port marked a significant milestone in its cruise tourism development on Friday with the arrival of Arvia, which officially docked at the new cruise terminal to begin homeporting operations.
The vessel’s arrival signals the start of a new phase for Antigua and Barbuda, allowing passengers to start and end their Caribbean itineraries in St. John’s. Port officials said the move is expected to bring increased economic activity, expanded job opportunities, and stronger partnerships across the tourism sector.
Homeporting is regarded as one of the most valuable segments of the cruise industry, generating higher passenger spending and creating additional demand for services such as provisioning, transportation, and accommodations.
Antigua Cruise Port described the development as the beginning of “a vibrant cruise season ahead,” highlighting the country’s push to expand its footprint in regional cruise operations.
