Help me find the cruise port in Houston

[scooterdaddy52]

How do I find the Port of Houston. I will not map out in Yahoo maps to the address in the cruise documents. I will be coming in Hwy 59S from Arkansas. Help please..

I am sailing on the NCL Dream 12-2.

I went to Google.com and typed "port of houston"

 

That gave me this link: http://www.portofhouston.com/

 

I then clicked on the Cruiseline Info link and got this: http://www.portofhouston.com/cruiseinfo/cruiseinfo.html

and then this link with directions at the bottom of the page. http://www.portofhouston.com/cruiseinfo/cruiseterminal.html

 

Happy Sailing!

Follow the instructions in post #10 of the following cruise critic thread: http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=162280

 

I'd posted a similar question before we went in May, 2005, and someone who lives down there gave excellent, turn-by-turn directions in this post.

Here's google satellite maps that might help:

 

 

From US 59, take the I 610 East to the La Porte Freeway, SH 225. Take SH 225 East to SH 146. Take SH 146 South to Barbours Cut Blvd. Take Barbours Blvd East to the port area. There's signs available once you are on SH 146. You will be able to see the ship from SH 225 as you near the SH 146 interchange. Just remember to turn away from the new cable span bridge over the Ship Channel to Baytown. Parking is less than one city block away from the Cruise Ship Terminal. The walk will probably be longer from the Terminal up the ramp to the ship.

 

I'll be boarding the Dream while you are disembarking. Have a great cruise.

If you didn't know the area you'd never know a cruise ship docks there. As a part-time limo driver I have been to the terminal on numerous occasions and the location of the terminal still amazes me.
