The small and luxurious cruise ship Seabourn Ovation, from the Seabourn Cruise Line company will make an unscheduled stopover tomorrow, Wednesday September 27 from 09:00 a.m. to 23:00 p.m. Indeed, initially planned for the port of Milford Haven in Wales, the boat and its 460 passengers, mainly Americans, will find refuge in the transatlantic dock of Cherbourg-en-Cotentin due to strong winds expected on the British coast. This meteorological decline offers the third coming on the clock of Seabourn Ovation for the year 2023 on our Cotentinoise destination!
