Norwegian Cruise Line Will Call Galveston Homeport in 2023

The third-largest cruise line in the world, Norwegian Cruise Line, has announced plans to sail out of Galveston.

Norwegian Cruise Line has reported it will homeport their new liner, the Prima, in Galveston in 2023. This would mark the first time Norwegian has sailed regular cruises from Galveston.

Norwegian Prima Homeports in Galveston, Texas

After Norwegian Prima concludes her inaugural year sailing bucket-list itineraries as the industry's newest ship, she will be the only vessel during the winter 2023 and 2024 season offering seven-day voyages to the Western Caribbean out of Galveston, Texas, providing the most extensive port experiences in the region with every itinerary visiting four ports. Norwegian Prima will call to Costa Maya and Cozumel, Mexico; Harvest Caye, the Caribbean's premier island destination in Belize and exclusive to guests of NCL; and Roatan Island, Honduras, with all visits featuring between eight and nine in-port hours.

With voyages beginning in summer 2022, Norwegian Prima will be 965 feet long, more than 142,000 gross tons and able to accommodate 3,215 guests at double occupancy.
