The Channel island of Guernsey has announced that it will not be accepting calls by cruise ships during 2021 due to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic.

Guernsey will concentrate on building back its cruise programme in 2022

Guernsey’s Committee for Economic Development said that the decision had been made due to “ongoing uncertainty and our priority to protect the health and safety of residents”.

Deputy Neil Inder, the committee’s president, added: “The cruise sector is very important to the Bailiwick of Guernsey and to our tourism industry, and this is not a decision that the committee has taken lightly.
