The Pacific Princess slowed down to embark our Pilot before commencing our final approach to the port of Alexandria. The vessel entered the AI Bughaz AI Kabar Great Pass Channel, crossed the breakwaters, crossed the Port Tower Control, then entered the inner harbor and set a final northeasterly course to be alongside at 07:20.
At 20:00 the vessel was ready to sail; crossing at 20:35 the Port Tower Control on the starboard, the breakwater, and entered the AI Bughaz AI Kabar Great Pass channel.
At 22:00 Pacific Princess was abeam of Qaitabay Cordest- the oldest Lighthouse of Alexandria one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World.

During the night Pacific Princess was abeam of Massab Rashid Bay (Rosetta Mouth.) We crossed the Burullus Lighthouse, abeam of the Lighthouse of Mas Abb Dumyat.
