Galveston Wharves and Royal Caribbean Group discuss Pier 14 terminal
Galveston Wharves is negotiating with Royal Caribbean Group on a new cruise terminal and berth at Pier 14 to expand the port’s cruise capacity. The Wharves board deferred a non-binding memorandum of understanding while talks continue. The effort builds on a 2022 public-private partnership that created a $125 million Pier 10 terminal with sustainability measures. Studies project the fifth terminal could add 1,500 jobs and $278 million in direct business revenue.
