Cruise news! Where did all the cruise ships go? Since there's way more cruise ships in the world than there are births in ports, the ships have to anchor somewhere. So I went to find out...

When you think of cruising, you probably think of the Caribbean area, that's by far the most popular place to cruise in the world. But you might be surprised to know that there's more than 300 cruise ships spread throughout all corners of the globe, including right here in little old England. Yeah.

Sadly, the Coronavirus has devastated the cruise industry, and that's why you see these lonely, sad ships anchored off-shore, waiting for a time when people no longer associate cruising with catching a Kayla virus. At the best of times of course, cruise ships have struggled to contain contagious nasties like the Norovirus. So it's no surprise that the Coronavirus hit the cruise industry like a sledgehammer. You might remember back in early 2020, the virus spread through the Diamond Princess in a matter of days, and Princess cruise line eventually reported that 700 passengers had been infected.

After that disaster, the cruise industry was essentially shut down. And that's the reason why we see all of these ships out here in the English channel. You see, at any given time, there's a lot more ships than there are births available in the ports. The only option is to anchor in the calmer waters near the coast, and just wait it out.

Today, off the South Coast of Bournemouth behind me, we see the Queen Elizabeth, as well as P&O's Arcadia, and Royal Caribbean's Allure of the Seas. A bit further around the coast near Weymouth, there's another seven cruise ships. It really is an astonishing sight to see all these gigantic cruise ships together in such close proximity. It's like a cruise liner party, except it's not really a party at all. Probably, if these ships could talk to each other, they'd all be crying. If you're interested in finding out more about the location of these cruise ships, all around the world, there's a fascinating website called CruiseMapper.com, and you can have hours of fun tracking down the location of your favorite ships.
