9 days, one-way from Taranto to Barcelona

About this cruise

9 nights, 9 ports, all from Taranto on September 13, 2026. The route visits Valletta, La Goulette (Tunis) and Palermo, with additional stops along the Western Mediterranean and the whole thing just flows. Disembarkation is in Barcelona. There's a new port every day, so you'll do your relaxing on board in the evenings rather than during dedicated sea days. The route threads through 5 countries along the Western Mediterranean coast: Malta, Tunisia, Italy, France and Spain. You get around 9 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, Costa Fascinosa holds 3,014 guests across 13 decks. It's a big ship, with plenty to keep you busy. A September sailing dodges the peak crowds while the weather is still cooperating. Well timed. You start in Taranto and come back with stories from Malta, Tunisia, Italy, France and Spain.
