Ocean Majesty

The Ocean Majesty arrived this morning from Torbay on the south coast of England.for a half day visit.  She has spent the early part of summer operating cruises to Norway, Greenland and the Baltic States from ports in Germany. She will head south when she leaves Guernsey for Bordeaux on the Atlantic coast of France before returning to Germany. In the autumn she will will be cruising in the Mediterranean.


Originally built as a ferry in 1966 serving the Balearic Islands she was refurbished to become a liner in 1988 as the Ocean Majesty. The weather was kind for the visit but at times provided dramatic lighting.


Guests on board had plenty to watch with a powerboat race providing entertainment on the way back to the liner. Being a Sunday most of the shops in St Peter Port will have been shut but guests made the most of the tours provided to enjoy Guernsey in the last days of summer.
