The last ship of the season docked at the Port of Muskegon on Wednesday, August 31.

There were 10 port of calls this summer, which exposed over 2,000 passengers and crew to beautiful Muskegon for the first time. Their overwhelming response was nothing but positive. Thanks to the people and businesses of Muskegon, we heard things like, “The people are so friendly”, “Your city is so clean” and “The architecture is beautiful”.

Pearl Seas has already confirmed another 10 stops at the Port of Muskegon in 2017 and there is potential for even more stops from different cruise ship companies down the road.
