10 Night Cruise from Marseille

About this cruise

Long enough to properly switch off but not so long you need to reorganise your entire life. This 10-night round-trip sailing from Marseille on October 7, 2026 visits Genoa, Barcelona and Tangier, with additional stops along the Western Mediterranean. Expect a run of consecutive ports, 7 stops total, with the busiest days packed close together. The sea days around them feel earned. The Western Mediterranean route takes in Italy, Spain, Morocco and United Kingdom, 4 countries, and the differences show up in the food, the architecture, and the mood. Don't rush through Genoa, which is known as Columbus' birthplace, a labyrinth of caruggi. Roughly 10 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. Costa Diadema carries up to 3,724 guests over 14 decks. Multiple pools, a theatre, and more restaurants than you'll get through. The shows alone are worth the extra nights. You'll catch comedy, music, theatre, and themed evenings you'd miss on a shorter trip. Families and groups will find plenty to do: waterslides, shows, multiple pools, and something for every age. If you can, add a night in Marseille before boarding. It's a good city to wander. And October is a good call. Still warm, less crowded, and usually cheaper too. All told, 7 ports across 10 nights covers a lot.
