Atlantic Passage – Lisbon, Cádiz & Rome

About this cruise

The kind of trip that's easy to say yes to and hard to regret. 9 nights from Dover on September 19, 2027, visiting Le Havre (Paris), A Coruña and Leixões (Porto), with additional stops along the Western Mediterranean. You wind up in Civitavecchia (Rome), so it's worth planning a night or two there. Expect a run of consecutive ports, 7 stops total, with the busiest days packed close together. The sea days around them feel earned. The route threads through 4 countries along the Western Mediterranean coast: France, Spain, Portugal and Italy. Le Havre (Paris) stands out. It's Normandy's port, Paris's gateway to the sea. Roughly 9 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. Carnival Miracle has 7 restaurants on board, which means you could eat somewhere different nearly every night. Dover itself is worth spending some time in. Don't just treat it as a departure point. And September is a good call. Still warm, less crowded, and usually cheaper too. All in all, it's a solid trip.
