Thursday, October 27, 2011
According to ATOR, the new seaport of St. Petersburg “Morskoy Fasad” which was opened only in 2011, has received 417,000 tourists and 220 cruise liners during summer (+15% in comparison with 2010). About 363 thousand cruise passengers visited St. Petersburg in 2010.

The navigation in St. Petersburg lasts from the 5th of May till the 12th of October. For the moment only year-round ferry navigation is in process. According to Andrey Fedorov, Commercial Manager of Morskoy Fasad, the throughput capacity of the port is about 1.5 million people per year.

“It’s the best Russian port for the moment with a great infrastructure; it has the capacity to receive the international cruise liners. The summer cruise period is very prospective. I think, that the increase of the number of the tourists in St. Petersburg has happened thanks to the work of the new modern seaport,” commented Tatyana Yarzhinskaya from Neva.
