Cruise Port

George Town is a tender cruise port, which means that cruise ships anchor and passengers are transported to the terminals via smaller boats. Port George Town has 3 terminals, all close to the main shoreline road: South Terminal, North Terminal, and Royal Watler Pier. South and North terminals have tourist offices. Travel agents at the terminals can help you choose tours to Stingray City, shopping tours (including duty free), scuba diving and snorkelling tours. Boats can take you to see and get close to the dolphins. Don't miss the turtles at the Turtle Farm in West Bay. Jeep tours, catamaran rides, parasailing and kayaking — anything is within reach.
