Atlantic Crossing – Bermuda to Rome

About this cruise

A 14-night sailing gives you something shorter trips can't: the feeling that you're not just visiting places but actually living somewhere else for a while. This one leaves Fort Lauderdale on April 20, 2026 and visits Kings Wharf, Ponta Delgada, Cartagena Spain, Barcelona and Civitavecchia (Rome). Disembarkation is in Civitavecchia (Rome). You ease into this one, with a few sea days up front to find your rhythm before the 5 port calls start. The route threads through 4 countries along the Western Mediterranean coast: Bermuda, Portugal, Spain and Italy. If one port sticks with you, it'll probably be Ponta Delgada, Volcanic beauty in the middle of the Atlantic. Around 9 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. Celebrity Ascent (2023) is one of the newer ships out there, with current design and recent tech throughout. The longer time on board means you'll catch several shows, themed nights, and start feeling like a regular at your favourite bar. Fort Lauderdale itself is worth spending some time in. Don't just treat it as a departure point. Timing-wise, spring usually means comfortable temperatures and lower prices than peak season. It's the kind of trip you actually remember afterwards.
