Accessed via the M27 or A27, the M275 motorway takes you straight to the port. 

Should you require car parking at your departure port, please contact:

CPS - Cruise and Passenger Services

Email: info@cruiseparking.co.uk
When booking your parking please have the following information to hand:

  • Registration number
  • Vehicle make and model
  • Plus any required assistance which may need to be noted

If you have booked and pre-paid car parking with CPS, you will be advised at the time of booking what documentation will be sent and required to present on arrival at the port. 

If you have booked a cruise that includes complimentary car parking, you're still required to book a car parking space. Please wait 3 working days after making your cruise booking before calling CPS to book your parking space. Regrettably, if the parking is not pre-booked you may be required to pay the full ‘on the day’ rate, which cannot be reimbursed."

The city of Portsmouth benefits from excellent rail access, with direct services available from London Waterloo, London Victoria, Brighton, Gatwick Airport, Southampton, Eastleigh and Cardiff (via Salisbury and Bristol). To reach the cruise port you'll need to alight at Portsmouth & Southsea Station and take a five minute taxi ride to the port. There is a taxi rank right outside the station.
