We are now heading towards the Star Cruise Terminal in Pulau Indah. Star Cruises is the third largest star cruise operator in the world. They operates two terminals, this one and another in the island of Langkawi. The jetty has a length of 200m and with dolphins 350m.
The building on the left is the terminal where passengers first checked in. It has five floors. The ground, first and second floors are open to the public and the top two floors are the corporate and administrative offices of Star Cruises. The building has a departure hall that can accommodate more than 200 passengers.
There was one cruise ship docking at that time. It was "Wasa Queen". This vessel has a gross tonnage of 16,546 grt, A length and width of 155.7m & 22m and a cruising speed of 17 knots. It has 218 cabins and can take in 608 passengers. You can go for a one day package with 3 meals included starting from RM98.00
We approached nearer for a closer look.
After making a turn, we went just under a pipe to come out the other end.
Wasa Queen loomed above us as we came out the other side impressively set against the setting sun.
Another view of Wasa Queen.
We were been curiously observed by the passengers as we passed the ship. People must be what these three jokers must be doing driving round in their little boat taking photos.
We then passed the ship and continued our journey leaving the Star Cruise Terminal behind.
To be continued...
