Creator's Key Takeaways
I admit I'm quite liking what I see here in Dover and the locality.
I really wasn't sure what to expect on arrival into Dova and this hotel. I will say early stages, but actually they are exceeding my expectations by quite some distance.
I love Southampton. I love sailing out of Southampton. But there's something really refreshing about coming to a totally different port.
Well done, Port Adova. You're rocking it.

Cruising from Dover, UK? Watch this FIRST! I admit, 15 years since I've been to Dover / Kent, so I wasn't sure what to expect before cruising from the port with Fred Olsen Borealis. In this episode I'll talk through some of the transport links, orientation, a detailed look at my hotel, the Dover Marina Hotel (including food, drinks, menus, costs etc), the immediate locality (beach, harbours, sea front, a morning at Dover Castle with lots of info) plus a tour of the nearby seaside resort of Deal and Walmer Castle. We also meet 3 reps from the Port of Dover marketing and communications team and find out why they think Dover is a unique port from which to sail. It's then time to see how arrival and check-in operates at the cruise terminal (berth 2). I am definitely ready for this next adventure and next time the spotlight will be firmly on Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines as we begin our cruise to the Azores, Madeira and Lisbon. Let's do this!
