| Homeport in Mexico

CONSTRUCTION is halfway to

completion on a major US$100m

cruise homeport project taking

place in Puerto Penasco, Mexico,

with cruise ships expected to start

docking in less than two years.

The port is expected to generate

a significant boom in tourism to

the Sea of Cortez, with officials

saying the aim will be to secure a

major ship to base itself there.

Located close to the city’s

tourist strip, the port will be

around 1.6km long, capable of

handling up to 3,000 pax per ship.
