Up to 200 visitors, mainly from Germany, will disembark on the Albert Pier.

Many will be going on pre-booked tours, including of east and west coats.

Jersey is the Conti Group owned ship's penultimate stop before going on to Dover and returning to Germany.

It has spent the past month cruising around the Canary Islands, Azores and mainland Portugal.
