Azura

Compared to the last few weeks the short crossing by tender from the Azura looked not as peaceful as it had been. She is on a two night cruise out of Southampton to Guernsey which seems to attract guests celebrating special birthdays and even wedding dinners.

St Peter Port had the morning sun which showed off the town cascading up the hills. Not many guests would have made it to one of Guernsey newer restaurants, the cream building with its huts in the gardens, accessible only by steps that climb the hill.

Azura entered service in 2010 and with her sister ship Ventura were the largest ships in P&Os fleet until the arrival of the Britannia. With Herm in the background she makes an impressive sight as her own tenders come alongside. During the day the Herm Trident also helped out, moving large numbers of guests at a time. Azura made her way back to Southampton just before 6.00pm.
