Amsterdam to Limit Cruise Ship Visits and Relocate Terminal by 2035
Amsterdam, Netherlands, is set to restrict cruise ship calls at its port starting in 2026, aiming to eventually eliminate the cruise terminal by 2035. The city’s move is in response to issues like noise and congestion due to tourism growth. The plan includes limiting cruise calls, requiring shore power, and potentially relocating the terminal. Other cities, like Barcelona, are also addressing similar challenges.
