Only two cruise ships are expected in Falmouth this month.

On Monday, the FTI Berlin made a day-long call carrying mainly German passengers.

The luxurious cruise ship Marina will anchor south of the port on Friday morning after completing her trans-Atlantic Viking Passage re-positioning cruise from New York to Dover via various ports in Canada, Cobh and Dublin.

Her European season begins with cruises to the Baltic and Russia.

The 66,000-ton Marina has  800 crew and can carry 1,250 passengers.
