Two
international cruise ships are again scheduled to visit the island of Boracay
this March.
According
to DOT Boracay OIC Tim Ticar, the first ship, Costa Atlantica, will arrive on
March 11 followed by MS Europa 2 on March 20.
The luxury
ships are expected to carry with it over 2,500 passengers that intend to go on an
island tour in Boracay.
This is MS
Europa 2’s third arrival in the island; the first two were last January 9 and
February 7.
The DOT on
the other hand, is looking into a possible problem during low tides, where
motorboats tend to congest at the Cagban Jetty Port and may cause some forms of
delays.
Ticar
added that the port will soon undergo a development which will be a huge
benefit for tourists going in and out of the island.
Meanwhile,
the Caticlan Jetty Port Administration is expecting Boracay to become a premier
cruise ship destination because of the continuous visits on one of the world’s
famous islands.
