The Port of Roses (Alt Empordà) is forecast to have its best year ever for cruise passengers according to various media reports.

The season has kicked off with the arrival of a luxury sailing boat from Barcelona and after spending today in Roses will head for Saint Tropez this evening. The 137 passengers, mainly French, Swiss and Belgians, are attended by 185 crew on board the 187 metre sailing boat.

Roses is expected to see 4,000 passengers this year, four times the number from 2013 and providing a big boost to the local tourist economy.
