7 days, round-trip Western Mediterranean from Marseilles
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 Marseille on July 12, 2026 visits Barcelona, Ibiza, Palermo, Civitavecchia (Rome) and Savona. Expect a run of consecutive ports, 5 stops total, with the busiest days packed close together. The sea days around them feel earned. French Riviera, Amalfi Coast, and everywhere in between. Probably the most popular Med route for a reason. People come back from this cruise talking about Civitavecchia (Rome): The Eternal City is just an hour away. Roughly 9 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. Costa Smeralda carries up to 5,224 guests over 20 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. 5 ports, 2 countries, one suitcase. That's the appeal.
