Le Laperouse carrying 264 passengers
Hundreds of passengers are due to visit Manx shores today (23 April) onboard a French cruise ship.
Le Laperouse is expected to arrive in Douglas at 8am and depart at 6pm.
It’s carrying 264 passengers and 110 crew.
Yesterday (22 April) the first cruise call of the season was disrupted after MV Hamburg failed to anchor in Douglas Bay; the vessel headed to Liverpool instead.
