In 2008-09, Fremantle enjoyed its biggest cruise season since the early 1970s. In 2009-10, there are 39 ship calls scheduled, including Queen Mary 2 and Queen Victoria.
In addition to the regular round-the-world cruise ships, Athena, superliner Sun Princess and Pacific Sun are homebasing in Fremantle, meaning they have a complete passenger transfer when they call.
Although Australia is a small cruise market, it is a major new destination for international voyages and seasonal home-basing.
Details of cruise ship visits are available in the schedule on the left. All visiting cruise ships berth at the Fremantle Passenger Terminal on Victoria Quay
Please note that the Fremantle Passenger Terminal is not open to the public when the Sun Princess visits due to the large numbers of people disembarking and embarking. During the ship's visits, the terminal carpark is only available for picking up and dropping off passengers. The best places to see ships entering or leaving the harbour are on the western end of Victoria Quay (at the Ferry Terminal, between A and B Sheds, or near the Maritime Museum) or on South or North moles. See the Inner Harbour map.
