7 days, round-trip Eastern Mediterranean from Athens

About this cruise

Long enough to properly switch off but not so long you need to reorganise your entire life. This 7-night round-trip sailing from Piraeus (Athens) on July 15, 2026 visits Valletta, Catania, Taranto, Kefalonia and Mykonos. Expect a run of consecutive ports, 5 stops total, with the busiest days packed close together. The sea days around them feel earned. It's a proper Eastern Mediterranean tour: 3 countries, from Malta to Greece. If one port sticks with you, it'll probably be Kefalonia, Captain Corelli's turquoise paradise. Roughly 9 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. Costa Fascinosa carries up to 3,014 guests over 13 decks. Multiple pools, a theatre, and more restaurants than you'll get through. And July means long, warm days. Good for the ports, good for the pool. It's the kind of trip you actually remember afterwards.
