Have you spotted the giant cruise ships that have parked up at Weymouth Bay?
Many people will finally find themselves able to enjoy the sun in the coming weeks and months. A break in the cold weather as spring moves on its merry way, alongside reduced Covid restrictions, mean a beach day is definitely in order. But coast goers may notice a slight change on the horizon, as a handful of towering cruise ships are calling the Dorset coast home for the foreseeable future.
With cruises not an option for now, the ships that would normally take thousands of people around the world have to go somewhere. They began arriving all the way back in July 2020 and are now floating on the outskirts of Weymouth Bay. According to CruiseMapper, the ships onlookers can see are the Britannia, Queen Elizabeth, and Aurora which are operated by P&O and Cunard. Between them, they can house over 9000 guests, not to mention a huge crew. T
