About the Boston Cruise Port

Not far from the city’s center and Logan International Airport, Cruise port Boston recently received an $11 million makeover. New passenger check-in features, screening, and a boarding area within the Black Falcon Cruise Terminal all improve comfort and efficiency. The area itself is the oldest continually-active port in the Western Hemisphere and, aside from cruises from Boston, encompasses cargo shipments and commercial fishing operations. More than 300,000 cruise passengers annually leave from the cruise port of Boston, and as new ships are being added, that number is likely to grow.

But why start your trip once you get on the water? With its history and world-class attractions, Boston is the perfect pre- or post-cruise excursion. The city – not too large to be overwhelming – presents travelers with many respected restaurants and hotels, arts and entertainment, and sports teams. Cruise port Boston, as well, is less than five miles from historical landmarks or popular spots, including Faneuil Hall, the Freedom Trail, and the Back Bay area. Even after the ship departs, passengers can still take in New England’s glory. En route to Canada, cruise liners travel alongside the coast, offering a breathtaking view of the area’s well-known autumn foliage.

With hotels downtown and along the waterfront and a five-level parking garage at the terminal, Boston is ideal for out-of-towners as it is for locals taking a cruise. Public transit, as well, accommodates cruise passengers. The MBTA Silver Line Rapid Transit Service goes directly to Black Falcon Cruise Terminal and offers connections to the port from South Station and Logan International Airport.
