A Dorset port has welcomed a record 5,000 passengers in its first cruise call at its newly developed deep-water berth.
Portland Port announced last week (April 28) that the MSC Virtuosa has brought the greatest number of guests of any single vessel visiting the port so far.
The MSC Virtuosa is the first cruise ship to use the port's new berth, which is part of a £26m redevelopment project to boost capacity and drive growth.
