As the sun went down behind the iconic White Cliffs on Monday 25 July, Dover Cruise Port, Britain’s second most popular cruise destination, bade a fond farewell to Disney Cruise Line’s Disney Magic for the final call of the 2016 season.
The Port of Dover ensured that cruise passengers had a memorable embarkation by arranging for them to be greeted in Cruise Terminal 2 by the sounds of The Shard Quartet, a saxophone quartet featuring some of the UK’s most prolific and pioneering young musicians, playing a medley of Disney classics to the delight of all.
Soon, with all passengers on board, it was time to sail. The majestic Disney Magic announced her departure to the tune of “When You Wish Upon a Star“ and swept into Dover Harbour past a spectacular water salute from the Port of Dover tugboats and safely on her way to her next destination.
Head of Business Development (Cruise), Sonia Limbrick said: “It continues to be another fantastic year for Dover Cruise Port, and it has been an honour to have the Disney Magic visit us four times this year. I would like to thank Disney Cruise Line for their continued support this year and am looking forward to their return to Dover next summer.”
