EUROPEAN CRUISES

Barcelona

HOME PORT

With a home port only steps from Barcelona’s diverse neighbourhoods and the famed urban beach of La Barceloneta, Sailors will uncover hidden secrets from local market cooking classes to modern and historic art in this vibrant seaside, architecturally stunning European city.

Ibiza

Sailors will arrive at golden hour for a catamaran sunset sail before jetting to one of Ibiza’s famed night clubs. For those more into delicious dining than dancing, they could try an olive oil or local winery eco-tour, carve out a secluded spa day complete with a mind-balancing yoga class, or just let the old city guide them.

Ajaccio

This French commune of the island of Corsica’s capital is filled with soaring mountains. Sailors can explore panoramic hiking trails, traverse Richiusa Canyon, try cafes in the historic centre, or visit the home turned museum where Napoleon Bonaparte was born in 1769. Natural or crafted, art is everywhere

Málaga

Sailors can uncover centuries of history in one of the oldest cities in Europe and venture off to visit Alhambra, a beautiful old-world palace, or perhaps just spend the day reveling in the small town.

Marseille

One look at this southern port town and it’s clear why Van Gogh was inspired to paint here. Sailors can go from France’s second-largest city, to scenic and historical countryside in minutes. Medieval villages feel frozen in time as do the Starry Nights (actually frozen in Van Gogh’s painting of that name).

Palma de Mallorca

This capital city of the island of Mallorca is the perfect dose of countryside serenity you might expect from a secluded Balearic island. Sailors can bike through picturesque villages, enjoy art in Valldemossa or stop off at a family-owned winery with a history so rich, they can taste it with each sip. 

Toulon

A gateway to charming towns in Provence, access both coastline and countryside in France’s second largest naval port. Originally a fishermen’s village, its coveted Mourillon quarter still boasts original architecture with a daily market, chic little boutiques and seaside restaurants. Bon appetit!

Marina di Carrara

With a backdrop of white-marked mountains covered in what appears to be snow, Marina di Carrara is actually blanketed with some of the world’s purest marble – a geographically rare site. On the border of Tuscany and Liguria, Sailors get access to Lucca, Pisa, Portofino and the breathtaking Cinque Terre.

Piraeus (Athens)

Few cities are as colourful as Athens — from the street art scene to the bright blue skies and sand-fringed shores. Take in breath-taking views from the Mikrolimano Marina, immerse yourself in ancient Greek history at the Parthenon, and explore the Acropolis; which remains the heart of the city.

Corfu.

Famous for its emerald-capped mountains and 125 miles of coastline, “The Evergreen Greek Island” of Corfu refers to more than just its stunning colours. Filled with both awe-inspiring historic monuments and cafe-lined streets, days can be spent at beach clubs or off-roading on the jewel-toned slopes.

Dubrovnik

Croatia

Along the coastline of this Croatian city, Dubrovnik exudes historical seaside romance with a splash of animated youthful energy. See the city through its famed architecture, immerse yourself in the nightlife (2am departure), or take a cable car up to Mount Srd for surreal views of the Adriatic Sea. 

Kotor

Montenegro

Nestled into Montenegro’s Adriatic coast, Kotor is a breath-taking gem of the Balkans. A medieval maze where museums and churches weave in and out of cafe-strewn squares and Venetial palaces — the intricacies of the city are only matched by the stunning scenic terrain in the backdrop.

Mykonos

Mykonos may be famous for its beach club parties and electric nightlife, but the Greek Isle has a notably quiet side, too. With overnight stays, you can explore the charm of the cafe-lined waterfront promenades, or tour the vineyards tucked charmingly into the gorgeous hillsides of the island.

Rhodes

A hot spot for writers and artists, Rhodes is where the Byzantine Empire meets modern cultural ingenuity. Whether wandering the cobbled streets of Old Town for delicious Greek bites, exploring the perched-on-a-hill village of Lindos, or hitting up famed Faliraki Beach — this island truly has it all.

Santorini

As the Greek Goddess of the Cyclades Islands, Santorini is known for breath-taking panoramas, fiery orange and blue sunsets, and the famed red and black beaches. Take in views from the blue and white dotted hills of Oia, or enjoy locally-made wine while sailing along the waters of the Caldera coast

Zeebrugge

Melding classic European flair with the charm of a seaside fishing town, soak in historic Old Town, explore the cafes and Baroque guild houses of Butchers' Street, or take a scenic sail in Ghent. 

La Coruña

Equal parts beachy hotspot and cultural hub, this historic city located on the Galician Coast is famous for its freshly-caught seafood, buzzing nightlife, and the oldest working lighthouse in the world.
