Corner Brook is a port city located in northeastern Canada, on Newfoundland Island's west coast. The city is Atlantic Canada's most northern one and has a population of around 20,000.

Corner Brook Port (locode CACBK) started its cruise tourism business in 1976. Cruise itineraries that commonly visit the Port of Corner Brook include Canada and New England voyages (departures from East Coast USA ports), Transatlantic crossings (between Europe and Canada/USA) and North Atlantic/Arctic routes.

Situated at the mouth of the Humber River, in the Bay of Islands, Corner Brook is the second-largest city in Canada's Newfoundland and Labrador province (following St. Johns) and functions as a service center for both northern and western Newfoundland. Corner Brook is home to multiple post-secondary institutions, entertainment venues, provincial and federal government offices, and Western Memorial Regional Hospital.

The city is on the same latitude as Gaspe (Quebec), which has a similar landscape and size but is located on the other side of Saint Lawrence Gulf.

In 2017, the cruise port handled a total of 13,186 passengers plus 6,901 crew. In 2017, maiden port calls made the RSSC-Regent ships Seven Seas Mariner and Seven Seas Navigator, also Vision of the Seas (Royal Caribbean) and Artania (Phoenix Reisen).

In 2018, the cruise port had scheduled 15 ship calls with estimated around 15,500 passengers. Maiden port calls were booked by AIDAvita (AIDA), Arcadia (P&O UK) and Crystal Symphony (Crystal Ocean).

2023 was the Port of Corner Brook's record-breaking year for cruise tourism, with ~40,000 passengers plus ~20,000 crew. The Port also recently surpassed 300,000 passengers since the introduction of the cruise shipping in the region (1976).

Starting in 1767 and through the 1870s, the lands of Eastern Canada were surveyed by Captain James Cook (British explorer and navigator/1728-79), who thoroughly mapped the coastal landscape. James Cook Historic Site (atop Crow Hill) overlooks the city and provides spectacular views of the Blomidon Mountains and Bay of Islands.

Corner Brook's climate is classified as humid continental (Dfb). The average temperature throughout the standard cruise season is 18°C/8°C in June, 22°/13° in July and August, 17°C/9°C in September and 11°C/4°C in October. Precipitation levels are highest in late summer/early fall, and it is strongly suggested to check the forecast before arrival to be prepared.

When visiting Corner Brook for the first time, cruisers will be pleasantly surprised by the adventure readily available on their doorstep. Zipline across a colossal gorge and appreciate the breathtaking views of the Humber Valley in Steady Brook, bike to Bartlett’s Point Park (along the waterfront), stroll the Corner Brook Steam Trail, or experience the great outdoors via ATV on backcountry terrain.

The city is also one of the gateways to the Gros Morne National Park (UNESCO World Heritage Site/1973-established as a Reserve, 2005-established as a National Park) where tourists can walk across the Earth’s mantle.
