Organisation sought to manage Island cruise services

The government is looking for an organisation which can help boost cruise ship numbers for the Island.

Officials are seeking groups or individuals which would be able to manage the development of the Isle of Man as a cruise destination on behalf of the Department for Enterprise.

Interested parties are being invited to put forward expression of interest on the government portal before the deadline at Noon on Wednesday, October 2.

A record number of cruises have visited Manx shores during 2019, and proposals for a deep water berth to house them better on visits are currently being reviewed.
