10 Night Cruise from Genoa
About this cruise
If you want the classic cruise without a massive time commitment, this is a strong option. 10 nights from Genoa on October 8, 2026, visiting Barcelona, Tangier and Casablanca, with additional stops along the Western Mediterranean. There's a stretch of back-to-back port days, so those days are busy, but the sea days around them give you time to recharge. The route threads through 4 countries along the Western Mediterranean coast: Spain, Morocco, United Kingdom and France. Most ports give you about 10 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, Costa Diadema: 3,724 guests, 14 decks. Entertainment, dining, and enough space that it never feels cramped. 10 nights is long enough to build a routine on board: favourite restaurant, favourite deck chair, favourite people. It starts to feel like a floating village. Being shoulder season helps: golden light, comfortable weather, and shorter queues at the popular spots. You start in Genoa and come back with stories from Spain, Morocco, United Kingdom and France.
