This page contains some of the best maritime/cruise sites on the net, all of which specialise in maritime history, memorabilia, and those that offer the latest news of what is happening in the world of shipping/cruising.

Links are arranged in the following order: Part 1 … Maritime & Cruise Sites - Part 2 … Maritime Memorabilia, Postcards, Photos and Books - Part 3 … Maritime Art.

If you have a link that would suit this page, then you are welcome to Email me at info@ssmaritime.com. Upon receipt your site will be checked to see if it fits our criteria. There is no offence meant if we are unable to place a requested link. Please Note: We only allow maritime and cruise based sites, those that provide information, news, photographs and maritime memorabilia, etc, material that is directly related to ships. We do NOT except hotel reservation & shore excursion operators and the like. Thus, please do not waste my time as I have received hundreds of applications over the years which fall in the latter category.

Should you find that a link have become inoperative, will you please send me an email naming the link.
