2025 CRUISE SHIP SEASON
The American Samoa Visitors Bureau is excited to announce the 2025 Cruise Ship Schedule, which kicks off January 28. This season will bring a variety of cruise ships from across the Pacific, beginning with the Azamara Onward, Celebrity Edge, Disney Wonder, Seven Seas Voyager, Seven Seas Mariner, and Oceania Nautica in the first 3 months. With these visits, American Samoa looks forward to welcoming thousands of visitors to experience the warmth of our culture, scenic beauty, and local charm.
The ASVB has worked tirelessly to enhance cruise ship days, ensuring they are more memorable and impactful for visitors and the local community alike. Here’s how we have been preparing:
1.Enhanced Wharf Presentation
New and updated banners will adorn the wharf, offering a vibrant and welcoming environment for arriving guests. These upgrades aim to make the first impression of American Samoa as breathtaking as the destination itself.
2. Vendor Opportunities
Vendor registrations are now open, giving the community a chance to showcase and sell their goods. This initiative not only supports local businesses but also provides visitors with authentic, locally crafted souvenirs and products.
3. Exciting Cultural Entertainment
The ASVB has actively sought out new dance groups to perform traditional Siva Samoa as part of the welcoming ceremony. These performances highlight the rich culture of American Samoa, creating unforgettable moments for cruise passengers.
4. Comprehensive Visitor Information
To ensure every visitor has an incredible experience, ASVB has made efforts to distribute detailed information about the island’s attractions, activities, and available services. This will help guests make the most of their time on the island.
The 2025 Cruise Ship Season is not only an opportunity for American Samoa to shine on the international stage but also a chance for the local community to benefit from increased tourism.
Mark your calendars and join us in welcoming the world to American Samoa this cruise ship season. Let’s make it a celebration of our island’s unique culture and hospitality!
