Cape Liberty Cruise Port Guide: Tips and Overview (Bayonne, NJ)
Key Moments
Editorial Summary
The creator provides an overview of the Cape Liberty cruise port located in Bayonne, New Jersey. This port serves over 100 cruises annually for lines such as Royal Caribbean and Celebrity. The video details the terminal facilities, which were significantly upgraded in 2014 to include a large terminal building and a 900 car parking garage. The creator notes that driving to the port is relatively easy due to clear signage, though the final stretch of road can be rough and the area is industrial. Shopping options like Costco and Walmart are available nearby for last minute needs. Regarding parking, the garage is located next to the terminal, allowing passengers to see their ship from the garage. The creator advises passengers to keep their parking tickets to pay at stations located between the garage and the terminal. Inside the terminal, the process is described as streamlined with integrated check-in, customs, and luggage processing. The video also mentions amenities such as a small shop, muster station band fitting for children, and designated ride share zones for Uber and Lyft. Finally, the creator notes that ships may provide views of the Manhattan skyline or the Statue of Liberty upon departure.

we sailed out of Cape Liberty in August of 2019 on the celebrity summit and were pleasantly surprised at how easy it was to drive to and navigate the port
the upgrade included the addition of a 125,000 square foot terminal with integrated check-in customs and immigration and luggage processing
thankfully more signs continued to point the way to the cruise terminal so we never felt lost
everything is close together and streamlined which meant we didn't have any long waits or long walks
