    As the summer of cruising approaches, Sydney Harbour – arguably the best place in the world to see a cruise ship up close and personal – will be at the epicentre of the cruise industry.

    Travellers, cruise fans and sight-seers alike will be keen to see which ocean-going beauties are in town. Travel Weekly will give you a heads-up each week as to which ships will be in port in Sydney, as well as letting you know of any first-time visitors or particularly exciting ships in port.
