🚢 Princess Cruises Returns to Fremantle in 2027!
Big news for Perth and Fremantle cruise lovers — Princess Cruises is officially coming back to homeport in WA from April 2027 after a seven-year break!
Sapphire Princess will be the first to return, setting sail on a 15-night cruise to Brisbane followed by a 17-night voyage to Sydney in May 2027. This marks a huge win for Western Australians who’ve been waiting to cruise straight from their own doorstep. With a maximum of 2,600 guests, this cruise will be a total winner for WA travellers.
🌏 What This Means for WA Travellers
No more long flights east — simply step aboard from Fremantle and start your holiday.
Exciting new itineraries to Brisbane, Sydney, Broome, and other coastal gems.
More choice and convenience for local families, couples, and seasoned cruise lovers.
💡 Why This is Big for Fremantle
Not only does Princess Cruises’ return mean more holiday options for locals, but it also gives Fremantle and the surrounding region a major tourism boost. More visitors = more support for local restaurants, tours, shops, and jobs.
The WA Government has backed this revival with a new $1 million investment into cruise tourism, ensuring Fremantle grows as a world-class cruise hub.
