The Royal Caribbean’s ‘Brilliance of the Seas’ is a 90,090\-ton, 2,112 passenger capacity cruise ship, with passengers mainly from the USA.

Tourism Minister, Lord Elis\-Thomas had the opportunity to step on board the ship to meet with the crew and captain and explore how Wales can further increase its share in the lucrative cruise sector.   
  
The cruise ship market has been identified as growth market for Wales. In 2016 the cruise industry was worth an estimated £7 million to the Welsh economy.  
  
There are 103 planned cruise calls across Wales in 2018, a year on year increase of 15%. Holyhead will welcome 53 of these calls \- an increase 30% from 2017\.  
  
The Welsh Government and Cruise Wales have been working in partnership with Local Authorities and Ports on a marketing programme for Wales as well as improving what we have to offer in Wales for the cruise market.    
  
Lord Elis\-Thomas, said: 


> “Today has been an excellent opportunity to see how a cruise ship such as the Brilliance of the Seas operates and look at the opportunities these cruise calls present for the wider economy of Wales. The growth of the sector is testimony to the collaborative work between public and private sector partners, working closely with the cruise liners to ensure that Wales is developing the right infrastructure and products which will appeal to their customers. I’m sure the passengers will have had an excellent time exploring the variety and quality of what Wales has to offer  and we look forward to welcoming more ships to Wales during 2018\.”

In order to develop the cruise sector, the Port of Holyhead are developing their infrastructure with a new multi user berth which will allow larger cruise vessels (up to 365m) to berth. This work is being done with advice from the Royal Caribbean on the berth design.  



> “The economic benefits the cruise industry brings to Anglesey and North Wales are hugely important,” added Anglesey's Major Projects and Economic Development portfolio holder, Councillor Carwyn Jones.
> 
> "Anglesey Council is pleased to be leading the North Wales Regional Cruise Project, and support via the Regional Tourism Engagement Fund (RTEF) has helped us attract many more cruise ship passengers to the region.
> 
> “Our annual cruise ship programme is going from strength to strength. We’ll welcome 53 cruise ships to Anglesey this summer, compared to 43 in 2017; bringing around 30,000 visitors and crew to the region. We will continue to market North Wales as a unique destination, build on our success and cement Holyhead’s position as one of the UK’s premier cruise ports.”

The cruise industry is also supported by the Destination Anglesey Partnership, where key private sector representatives collaborate with the public sector to maximise benefits.

Mae llong cwmni’r Royal Caribbean ‘Brilliance of the Seas’ yn llong fordeithio 90,090 tunnell, sy’n gallu cludo 2,112 o deithwyr, a bydd y teithwyr ar y fordaith hon yn dod yn bennaf o UDA.

Cafodd y Gweinidog Twristiaeth, yr Arglwydd Elis\-Thomas gyfle i fynd ar y llong i gwrdd â’r criw a’r capten er mwyn ystyried sut y gall Cymru gynyddu ymhellach ei chyfran o’r farchnad broffidiol yn y sector mordeithio.   
  
Mae’r farchnad llongau mordeithio wedi cael ei nodi’n farchnad dwf i Gymru. Yn 2016, gwerth y diwydiant mordeithio i economi Cymru oedd tua £7 miliwn.  
  
Yn 2018, mae 103 o fordeithiau’n bwriadu ymweld â Chymru, sef cynnydd blynyddol o 15%. Bydd Caergybi yn croesawu 53 o’r ymweliadau hyn \- cynnydd o 30% ers 2017\.  
  
Mae Llywodraeth Cymru a Cruise Wales wedi bod yn gweithio mewn partneriaeth ag Awdurdodau Lleol a phorthladdoedd i greu rhaglen farchnata i Gymru, yn ogystal â gwella’r hyn sydd gennym i gynnig i’r farchnad fordeithio yma yng Nghymru.    
  
Dywedodd yr Arglwydd Elis\-Thomas: 


> “Roedd heddiw’n gyfle ardderchog imi weld sut y mae llong fordeithio megis Brilliance of the Seas yn gweithredu ac i ystyried y cyfleoedd y mae ymweliadau’r llongau hyn â Chymru yn eu cynnig i economi ehangach y wlad. Mae twf y sector yn tystio i’r gwaith ar y cyd rhwng partneriaid yn y sector cyhoeddus a’r sector preifat, sy’n cydweithio’n agos â’r llongau mordeithio er mwyn sicrhau bod Cymru’n datblygu’r seilwaith a’r cynhyrchion cywir a fydd yn apelio at eu cwsmeriaid. Rwy’n sicr bod y teithwyr wedi cael amser gwych yn gweld amrywiaeth ac ansawdd yr hyn sydd gan Gymru i’w gynnig, ac rydyn ni’n edrych ymlaen at groesawu rhagor o longau i Gymru yn ystod 2018\.”

Er mwyn datblygu’r sector mordeithio, mae Porthladd Caergybi yn datblygu ei seilwaith gan gynnig angorfa newydd ar gyfer mwy nag un defnyddiwr a fydd yn caniatáu i longau mordeithio mwy (hyd at 365 o fetrau) angori yno. Mae’r gwaith hwn yn cael ei wneud ar sail cyngor gan gwmni’r Royal Caribbean o ran sut y dylai’r angorfa gael ei dylunio.  
  
Yn ôl deiliad y portffolio ar gyfer Prosiectau Mawr a Datblygu Economaidd yn Ynys Môn, y Cynghorydd Carwyn Jones: 


> “Mae’r manteision economaidd sy’n dod i Ynys Môn a Gogledd Cymru oherwydd y diwydiant mordeithio yn hynod bwysig.”
> 
> “Mae Cyngor Sir Ynys Môn yn falch o arwain y Prosiect Mordeithiau Rhanbarthol ar gyfer Gogledd Cymru, ac mae cymorth drwy’r Gronfa Ymgysylltu Twristiaeth Ranbarthol wedi ein helpu ni i ddenu llawer mwy o deithwyr ar longau mordeithio i’r ardal.
> 
> “Mae ein rhaglen flynyddol ar gyfer llongau mordeithio yn mynd o nerth i nerth. Byddwn ni’n croesawu 53 o longau mordeithio i Ynys Môn yn ystod yr haf hwn, o gymharu â 43 yn 2017, gan ddod â thua 30,000 o ymwelwyr a chriw o’r llongau i’r ardal. Byddwn yn parhau i farchnata Gogledd Cymru fel cyrchfan unigryw, gan adeiladu ar ein llwyddiant eisoes a chadarnhau safle Caergybi fel un o brif borthladdoedd y DU ar gyfer mordeithiau.”

Mae’r diwydiant mordeithio hefyd yn cael cefnogaeth gan Bartneriaeth Cyrchfan Ynys Môn, lle y mae cynrychiolwyr allweddol o’r sector preifat yn cydweithio â’r sector cyhoeddus er mwyn sicrhau’r budd mwyaf posibl.
