Yes, "berth" is a homonym of "birth." "Berth" can mean a place where a ship docks or a bed on a train.
I am a Caymanian and i live here in Cayman and go to school here. Cruise Ships do not come EVERY day. But most of the time they do. Its pretty rare when you drive into town and see the waterfront empty. The most Ive seen of Cruise Ships a day is Seven.
Piers are typically used for water transport such as ferries, cruise ships, and cargo ships. They provide a stable structure for vessels to dock and allow passengers and goods to embark and disembark safely.

Most current Royal Caribbean Cruise ships can accommodate between 1,700 and 3,100 passengers. Therefore, the average is around 2,200 passengers. They have ships in development that will accommodate as many as 5,000 passengers!

The homonym of "harbour" is "harbor," which refers to a place on the coast where ships can seek shelter. The homophone of "harbour" is "harbor," as they are pronounced the same way but have different spellings and meanings.

The least expensive accommodations for passengers.
Ferrys are small fry compared to cruise ships which are the commonly the largest passenger ships in the seven seas!Typically, a cruise ship is MUCH larger than a ferry because cruise ships are capable of carrying thousands of passengers at a time and are typically 150 to 700 meters in length. Ferries are smaller in that they carry a max capacity of 20 maybe 100 people, including vehicles.
In the US the Coast Guard save ships and their crews/passengers.
