7 Night Cruise from Barcelona

About this cruise

A week or so at sea, a few great ports, and nothing to organise once you're on board. This 7-night sailing from Barcelona on July 20, 2026 visits Ibiza, Palermo, Civitavecchia (Rome), Genoa and Marseille. Expect a run of consecutive ports, 5 stops total, with the busiest days packed close together. The sea days around them feel earned. Crossing 3 borders through the Western Mediterranean: Spain, Italy and France. You'll notice the culture shift at every stop. Don't rush through Ibiza, which is known as White-island energy from sunset to sunrise. 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. Families and groups will find plenty to do: waterslides, shows, multiple pools, and something for every age. And July means long, warm days. Good for the ports, good for the pool. All told, 5 ports across 7 nights covers a lot.
