Florida's Port Canaveral has announced plans to build a new cruise terminal to meet growing industry demand.
Expected to be operational by summer 2026, the new multi-user cruise terminal at the port's existing North 8 berth will provide several benefits, including significant cost savings, operational flexibility and an expedited construction timeline.
Upon completion, the terminal will be able to accommodate the largest cruise ships in the world.
The new development will also include a multi-story parking facility that can accommodate up to 3,000 vehicles.
"We have cruise partners with immediate needs to locate assets in Florida and Port Canaveral is where they want to be," the port's CEO Capt. John Murray said in a statement. "Our ability to efficiently bring a new cruise terminal online was key to retaining and growing this important business segment that supports many jobs and delivers high value to our regional and state economy."
"A new cruise terminal and the business it will deliver builds on our Board’s commitment to the economic prosperity of our Port community," added Micah Loyd, Chairman of the Canaveral Port Authority Board of Commissioners.
"This proactive, business-oriented strategy reaffirms our commitment to ensure the State of Florida continues to prosper from cruise tourism and remains the 'Cruise Capital of the World.'"
