An International Cruise Terminal Has Been Opened in Mumbai

25.04.2025

India’s first international cruise terminal located at Mumbai’s Ballard Pier in Mazgaon, was inaugurated today, April 21, 2025 by Union Minister of Ports, Shipping and Waterways Sarbananda Sonowal.

The state-of-the-art terminal is spread over 415,000 square feet and can handle 500 cruise ships and up to 1 million passengers every year.

Daily, the facility can manage up to 10,000 travellers with the help of 72 immigration counters.

The terminal is a ground-plus-three structure. While the ground and first floors will be used for passenger handling, the second and third floors are planned for commercial leasing.

The facility has been developed to not only cater to the growing number of domestic travellers but also to attract a larger share of international tourists to Mumbai and the surrounding metropolitan region.

As of now, nearly 300,000 Indians travel by cruise annually, mostly from foreign ports.

The new terminal aims to change that, offering Indians an opportunity to begin international sea voyages directly from Mumbai.
