Costa Voyager



Today was the turn of the Costa Voyager, one of Costa's smaller ships with a capacity for 800 guests, She arrived at the anchorage early morning having sailed from Vigo, the port for Santiago de Compostela, destination for many pilgrims, at least one of the guests was up early.



Despite the slow approach on a grey morning the shore party were in fine fettle as they sailed into St Peter Port to get all ready for their guests.



Sark Shipping supplied one of their ferries as an extra tender to speed up getting guests ashore. During the wait to anchor one enterprising crewman took the time to do some fishing!


The Costa Voyager departed at 3.00 pm for Dunkirk, following the fashion for shorter visits, either to visit more destinations or to have a more economical cruising speed for the next destination.
