COSTA CRUISES AND SAVONA
Costa Cruises’ inaugural call in Savona was in November 1996, with Costa Riviera, the first Italian cruise ship to dock there. The alliance between Costa Cruises and the town has flourished ever since.
One of the key stepping stones was marked by the inauguration on 24 November 2003, of the Palacrociere Cruise Terminals, co-financed by Costa under a 3.6 million euro investment programme, managed directly by the company.
On November 8, 2014, on the occasion of the first call of the new flagship Costa Diadema, the second Palacrociere terminal, a 9 million euro investment on the part of Costa Cruises, officially commenced operations.
The Municipality of Savona, the Port Authority and Costa Cruises signed a Memorandum of Understanding for the sustainable development of the cruise sector in town.
Savona is now the main home port of the company, with a total annual throughput of approximately 800,000 passengers.
