bess128 Posted August 13, 2015 #1 Share Posted August 13, 2015 Hello all wise and knowledgeable cruise critic members. I am on a mini criuse out of Southampton on Anthem in October. Which cruise terminal does RCI use in Southampton ? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruisingthesuitelife Posted August 13, 2015 #2 Share Posted August 13, 2015 (edited) According to the port schedule, Anthem will be out of terminal berth 101 which is called City Cruise Terminal. This is their usual terminal. Full schedule here: http://www.southamptonvts.co.uk/Live_Information/Shipping_Movements_and_Cruise_Ship_Schedule/Cruise_Ship_Schedule/ Edited August 13, 2015 by Cruisingthesuitelife Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jennywren46 Posted August 13, 2015 #3 Share Posted August 13, 2015 Hi RCI always use city terminal gate 101 or they have the last six times we've been down, I don't think it's changed for Anthem. Enjoy your cruise ,we're going on Oct 11. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enjoy your cruise ,we're going on Oct 11. Not gate 101 it's berth 101 entrance through dock gate 10 off the round about next to the holiday inn on Herbert walker avenue and opposite the grand harbour hotel.

truffles2 Posted August 13, 2015 #5 Share Posted August 13, 2015 If you need a place to stay prior to embarking, you can walk out the door of the Holiday Inn and right into the port and pier where the ship is docked! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dock Gate 8 is the one you need, not ten as above. kezz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cymru cruiser Posted August 13, 2015 #7 Share Posted August 13, 2015 Dock Gate 8 is the one you need, not ten as above. kezz Without being pedantic both dock gate 8 AND dock gate 10 serve the same berth and can both be used. 8 is easier. Diolch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
motif Posted August 15, 2015 #8 Share Posted August 15, 2015 If you really wanted to see some of the port (not pretty, but quite interesting) you could come off at the roundabout where the A35 and A33 meet, head down First Avenue, then Western Avenue, and finally West Bay Road and Solent Road. This is the way our taxi brought us (he did ask first!). Berth 101 is the one nearest to Mayflower Park and either gate 8 or 10 will work. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CCFC Posted August 16, 2015 #9 Share Posted August 16, 2015 Here is a high definition photo taken from the Holiday Inn showing dock gate 8, City Cruise terminal and the Anthem docked. Its big (19meg which might take a while to download) so I haven't shown the image directly. https://sites.google.com/site/knutsclose/spares/hia.png Can you spot the man with a broom cleaning the ship? (Without a harness by the looks of it!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stitchcreek Posted August 16, 2015 #10 Share Posted August 16, 2015 We're staying at the Holiday Inn - is there anywhere to potter about, or is the port too far from anything else? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Its a 5 minute walk to the High Street, over the road and keep going. We go to the Wetherspoons for something to eat which is cheap and cheerful. We walked to Asda in the morning too to stock up on odds and ends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Holiday Inn HWA is across the road from the huge West Quay shopping centre (John Lewis, M&S etc). There is also the old walls which are rather scenic. And a lovely boutique hotel called Pig in the Wall. For food there is the Ennios hotel which also has an Italian restaurant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
