Discover the Mediterranean’s Top Destinations
1. Greece:
Picture yourself sailing into the port of Santorini, where whitewashed buildings with blue domes cling to cliffs overlooking the Aegean Sea. Stroll through the charming streets of Oia, enjoy a glass of local Assyrtiko wine at a cliffside taverna, and take in an unforgettable sunset. Mykonos, with its vibrant nightlife and iconic windmills, offers another side of Greek island life.
2. Italy:
An Italian cruise stop promises something for everyone. In Rome, you can tour the Colosseum, toss a coin into the Trevi Fountain, and explore the Vatican—all in one day. Florence, the birthplace of the Renaissance, offers stunning architecture and world-renowned art, while Naples provides access to Pompeii and the stunning Amalfi Coast.
3. Spain:
Barcelona is a must-see stop on many Mediterranean itineraries. Wander down Las Ramblas, explore the whimsical architecture of Antoni Gaudí, and enjoy tapas at a local café. In Palma de Mallorca, you’ll find gorgeous beaches alongside historic sites like the Gothic-style La Seu Cathedral.
4. France:
A Mediterranean cruise often includes glamorous stops along the French Riviera. In Nice, stroll along the Promenade des Anglais or take a short trip to Monaco for luxury shopping and casino fun. Marseille offers a mix of historic sites and modern attractions, along with some of the best seafood in France.
5. Croatia:
Dubrovnik, known as the “Pearl of the Adriatic,” offers ancient city walls, charming streets, and crystal-clear waters. Split is another Croatian gem, where you can explore Diocletian’s Palace, a UNESCO World Heritage site, and enjoy beautiful beaches.
