Welcome to our Reina del Pacifico website celebrating this remarkable ship. She was the largest ship built for the Pacific Steam Navigation Company and their first with a white hull. She was the largest and fastest motor liner of her time and sailed on their service from Liverpool to the Caribbean, Panama Canal and South America. She gave sterling service on PSNCo's service to South America for many years in both war and peace. During the Second World War she was requisitioned for service as a troopship. 

On 27th April 1958 the Reina del Pacifico sailed on her last voyage before being withdrawn from service and was subsequently scrapped at the BISCO yard of John Cashmore at Newport in Monmouthshire, Wales.

This website aims to record the history of this fine British ocean liner and act as a virtual home to honour and commemorate this fine ship. We hope you enjoy this website and when you leave we hope you will visit again soon.
