Spanish Wells says NO to Cruise Ships

20/10/2021

There is a cruise ship currently anchored off of Egg Island (although it may be licensed as a private vessel).

Many passengers are being ferried to Egg Island.

We understand there may already be damage to the reef and the boat has not even lifted the anchor yet.

We are very concerned and are working on obtaining more information!

We understand that the Defense Force has been dispatched.

***Please provide any evidence of environmental damage, we will present it to the appropriate authorities for investigation.

"OVERWHELMINGLY" Opposed to Crystal Cruises calling!

A Spanish Wells council member says the community “overwhelmingly” opposes Crystal Cruises using it as a port of call while blasting both the cruise line and the government for failing to consult residents.
