IJmuiden Cruise Port at Felison Terminal sits where the North Sea Canal meets the sea, 25 km west of Amsterdam. It takes the vessels too large for the IJ locks and increasingly the ships Amsterdam has been steering away from the city centre, which makes it a working turnaround port for the Baltic and Norwegian fjord seasons. There is no rail station at the terminal and the bus connection involves a change at Amsterdam Sloterdijk, so nearly everyone arrives here by road.
