The cruise ship ATHENA made her first call in Lisbon in 2011 on 11 April, on the final leg of a long liner voyage from Australia to the UK via Suez, following her third very successful cruise season down under... Here she is leaving Alcântara passenger terminal where so many P&O, Orient, Shaw Savill, Chandris, Sitmar, Lauro and Lloyd Triestino liners used to berth while on round the world and Australia liner service after WW2 and until 1977.

Bom voltar a ver este navio que tanto tempo nos fez companhia aqui no porto de Aveiro.
