Since the official launch of the Nansha Cruise Port on January 3, 2016, cruise ships such as Star Cruises’ SuperStar Virgo, Dream Cruises’ Genting Dream, and Costa Cruises’ Costa Victoria have all operated here, using Nansha as their home port and launching routes to destinations such as Da Nang and Nha Trang in Vietnam, as well as Miyako Island and Naha in Japan.

In November this year, the second luxury cruise ship under Dream Cruises—the World Dream—will make its grand debut in Guangzhou’s Nansha. With Guangzhou (Nansha) and Hong Kong serving as dual home ports, it will open two international routes to the Philippines and Vietnam.
