The award ceremony was carried out by the online magazine “CruceroAdicto”.

The head of the Provincial Directorate of Ports, Roberto Murcia, referred to the growth of port activity in the dock of the Fuegian capital "where what the shipping companies had announced to us at the Seatrade Cruise Global Fair is being fulfilled, the arrival this year of new generation ships, larger and with a greater number of passengers.”

Within the framework of a new distinction made last Thursday to the ship “Serenade of The Seas”, which arrived for the first time at the Port of Ushuaia, the official stated that “the work in the Port never stops and with the expansion we carried out From the dock we have the possibility of working on cargo, fishing and tourism at the same time.”

Likewise, he highlighted the coordinated work between the public and private sectors where “many times it has been said that this synergy between both sectors did not work, and here we have shown the opposite. During the pandemic we did very important work between the Government of the Province and the private sector with the Port protocol; which was a model for South America and where we had a season like no other Port had. This is undoubtedly extremely important.”

At the same time, Murcia stressed that not only tasks related to the movement of passengers are carried out at the dock; but also fuel loading is carried out; supplying ships; crew replacement, “and many other activities that give the Port the position we have today worldwide.”

In this sense, the award given by the online magazine “CruceroAdicto” stood out, who classified the Port of the Fuegian capital as the best in South America.   The result arises from a vote carried out by international travelers, which allows them to have their opinion to decide which have been their best cruise vacation experiences.

Finally, the president of the Port invited all countries to join in operating in the renovated dock, highlighting the supply tasks of the Antarctic Bases and the programs of third countries "where we have incorporated new countries and the idea is to continue adding many more." .
