MSC Opera, Oceana


Two regulars today, the Oceana arriving first on a Southampton, Zeebrugge, Guernsey, Southampton cruise along with the MSC Opera arriving in the early afternoon on a cruise from Spain, to the Netherlands and then south again. The helmsman on the Oceana tender has been in the job 25 years, and on a day like this it looks to be a good job.


Guernsey still continues to bask in a heatwave but some of the guests on the MSC Opera prefer to stay on board the ship and enjoy the luxury cabins on the stern with the bigger balconies.


With the capacity of these liners there was plenty of tender traffic going to and fro and the Oceana being on her usual easterly anchorage had the longer ride. The MSC Opera was the last to leave Guernsey and was on her way south to Vigo where she will arrive on Saturday morning. Both liners will be back at the end of the month, hopefully still in good weather.
