The Island will welcome a record number of cruise ships this year.
59 vessels are set to visit Manx shores, which surpasses the previous record of 47 in 2019, and will bring over 18,300 passengers and 15,700 crew.
The Isle of Man began welcoming cruise ships back in April 2022, following the pandemic.
Tim Crookall, Department of Enterprise Member with responsibility for Tourism, says 44 ships are already for 2024, with bookings also in place for 2025.
The first ship of 2023 will arrive on March 26.
