Cruises from Bristol

Bristol Cruise Terminal at Royal Portbury Dock serves as the West Country’s largest cruise port, primarily offering seasonal cruises from Bristol with Ambassador Cruise Line. Just six miles outside the city centre at Avonmouth, Bristol Cruise Port is easily accessible by car or train from the wider UK.

Ambassador is usually the only cruise line offering cruises departing from Bristol, although TUI and Fred Olsen may occasionally stop by as a port of call.

Cruises from Bristol normally head to the Mediterranean, Northern Europe or around the British Isles.

  • Mediterranean - Brest, Bilbao, La Coruna, Lisbon, Cadiz, Gibraltar
  • Northern Europe - Iceland, Faroes, Norwegian Fjords, Amsterdam
  • British Isles - Falmouth, Cobh, Dublin, Newcastle

Cruises from Bristol can be a variety of sailing lengths. Mini cruises of around 3 to 5 days are very popular around the wider British Isles, even stopping off at more niche ports other cruise ships rarely stop at. Meanwhile, longer itineraries consisting of several weeks and many ports of call are also available. As cruises departing from Bristol are not as numerous as other UK ports and are seasonal, we recommend booking well in advance, but some last-minute deals may also be available.
