Cruises 2026: Bremerhaven expects 73 calls – find out now!

Bremerhaven also has a lot of cruise ship calls scheduled for 2026, and it seems that the city has developed a real knack for maritime tourism. A total of 73 calls are planned in the Hanseatic city by December 23rd. A very special appearance will be offered in January, when the “Mein Schiff 3” from A Coruña, Spain, docks at 5:30 a.m. on January 7th and sets off for Las Palmas at 5:00 p.m North Sea newspaper reported.

Of course, it is inevitable that some journeys can be canceled or added spontaneously; the list is updated regularly, constantly rekindling the anticipation of the ship's arrivals. The main shipping companies such as TUI Cruises moor at Columbuskaje with their ships “Mein Schiff 1” and “Mein Schiff 3”, supplemented by the Phoenix Reisen fleet, which includes “MS Amera”, “MS Amadea”, “MS Artania” and “MS Deutschland”.

Visitor gallery and viewing platform

A highlight for all maritime enthusiasts is the visitor gallery at Steubenstraße 7. This is open on departure days from 8:00 a.m. until half an hour after the ships have left. Here anyone interested can marvel at the majestic liners up close. The container observation tower at the north lock will also be accessible to visitors free of charge from March 1st and offers a fantastic view of the overseas port.

Great importance is attached to a special tradition in Bremerhaven: ships are traditionally viewed as female here. They have the article “die” and the “MS” stands for “motor ship”, which is not part of the name. Another interesting point is the term “Kaje”, which is used in North German sailor language for the fortified sea wall - a pier, on the other hand, is surrounded by water on three sides.

News from the port

The British shipping company Ambassador Cruise Line is also bringing a breath of fresh air to the port, as two calls with the ships “Ambition” in July and “Ambience” in December are also planned, which expands the range of arrivals. Enthusiasts can expect many exciting visits and a happy atmosphere in Bremerhaven.
