Every
year
hundreds
of
river
cruise
ships
visit
Antwerp.
Days
with
eight
or
more
river
cruise ships docked at the same time are no rarity in the city.
Because
the
river
cruise
ships
visit
Antwerp
in
such
large
numbers
it
is
not
possible
to
let them all dock in one single place.
Therefore the ships are spread out over three berth places in the city:
- the Scheldt Quays
- the Willemdok
- the Kattendijkdok
Below you can find information about all three berth places.

Berth place - Scheldt Quays
The
river
cruise
ships
that
dock
at
the
Scheldt
Quays
can
do
so
at
Quay
18
&
19,
just
behind
the
elevated
promenade
Zuiderterras,
at
the
bus
parking.
Up
to
six
river
cruise
ships
can
dock
here
at
the
same
time
in
two blocks of three ships next to each other.
Scheldt
Quay
18
&
19
are
centrally
located
and
visitors
can
easily
reach
the
historic
city
centre
after
a
short
walk
on
foot.
After
just
a
few
minutes
you
stand
in
front
of
the
medieval
fortress
‘Het
Steen’,
or
on
the
‘Grote
Markt’
with
its
beautiful
town
hall
and
guild
houses.
From
there
the
Cathedral
of
Our
Lady
is
only
a
few
steps
away.
