St. Kitts to welcome 68 cruises this month with over 130,000 passengers expected 

St. Kitts and Nevis: The island of St. Kitts is set for a busy cruise month as the March 2026 cruise schedule features 68 cruise ship calls which are expected to bring more than 130,000 passengers to the destination.

According to the official cruise schedule released by local tourism authorities, vessels from several of the world’s leading cruise lines will dock at Port Zante throughout the month with several days welcoming more than three vessels simultaneously.

The schedule began on March 1 when Wind Spirit and Ambition made a cruise call to the island. Some of the major cruise ships scheduled to visit include Arvia, MSC Virtuosa, Odyssey of the Seas, Celebrity Beyond, Enchanted Princess, Brilliance of the Seas, Grand Princess, Norwegian Sky, Queen Victoria and Costa Pacifica.

One of the busiest days of the month is expected to be March 17 when a total of four ships including Aidasol, Brilliant Lady, Celebrity Eclipse and Grand Princess are scheduled to dock on the same day. Luxury vessels such as Silver Ray, Seabourn Ovation, Seven Seas Grandeur and Viking Sea are also included in the lineup which will bring high-value visitors who typically spend more on excursions, dining and local experiences.

Cruise arrivals are expected to provide a significant boost to the island’s economy as it will highly benefit taxi operators, tour guides, restaurants, craft vendors and small businesses across St. Kitts.

Based on typical passenger capacities of the visiting ships, tourism stakeholders estimate that more than 130,000 cruise passengers could arrive in St. Kitts during March alone and this does not include thousands of crew members who also visit the island during port calls.

The continued strong cruise schedule highlights the island’s growing popularity among major cruise operators and reflects the sustained recovery and expansion of Caribbean cruise tourism.
