The grand finale of the 2025 Alaska Cruise Season has arrived — quite literally — with the Coral Princess making her final appearance of the year in Vancouver Harbour. In this short reel, watch as this elegant Princess Cruises vessel glides through calm evening waters, illuminated by the soft glow of harbour lights and the city skyline behind her.
Arriving just before nightfall, the Coral Princess delivered a flawless finale: a perfect wide spin in the center of Vancouver Harbour, her navigation lights glowing against the blue of dusk, before expertly reversing bow-first into her berth at Canada Place East. For those who follow Vancouver’s cruise season, this was a special moment — the last arrival of the year, closing out another spectacular season of Alaskan voyages.
The harbour was calm and reflective, mirroring every light from the ship and skyline. The North Shore Mountains stood in shadow, and the glow of BC Place and Canada Place framed the moment perfectly. The timing couldn’t have been better — arriving just as the twilight sky deepened to a rich indigo, creating the ultimate cinematic finish to a season that saw dozens of ships come and go, from luxury expedition vessels to some of the largest cruise liners afloat.
For Princess Cruises, Vancouver remains a beloved embarkation and disembarkation port — the perfect gateway to Alaska. The Coral Princess, known for her graceful design and signature coral-colored hull detailing, is a ship made for scenic cruising. Built for the Panamax locks, she’s smaller and more intimate than today’s mega-liners, offering guests a classic cruise experience rich with ocean views and quiet elegance.
This final arrival marks not just the end of the 2025 Alaska season, but a beautiful reminder of Vancouver’s role as the heartbeat of the Pacific Northwest cruise circuit. From the season’s opening arrivals in spring to this final fall evening, the harbour has been alive with excitement, movement, and unforgettable sights.
Whether you’re a cruise enthusiast, a Vancouver local, or simply someone who loves beautiful maritime scenes — this short reel captures the perfect ending to another remarkable season. As the Coral Princess rests at Canada Place under a canopy of twilight, we say bon voyage to her and to another amazing year of ships, sails, and sea stories.
