Welcome to September, Victoria! 

With the arrival of fall, cruise ship dockings at Ogden Point will slowly dwindle to more of a gentle rhythm in comparison to peak summer tourism.

Monday—the stat holiday this year—kicked us off, with the Carnival Spirit ship arriving at 8 p.m. with 2,124 passengers. 

Tuesday brings us a slight break before another from the Carnival Line, the Carnival Luminosa, is welcomed on Wednesday, September 4th at 8 p.m. with 2,260 passengers.

Friday, September 6th will be our busiest day, with a total of four cruise ships arriving at Ogden Point! Those ship details are listed below.
