Azure Wake – Genoa, Naples & Valletta

About this cruise

This one leaves Marseille on May 30, 2026 and spends 7 nights visiting Genoa, Naples, Messina, Valletta and Barcelona at a pace where every day has something going on but there's always time to just sit and watch the water too. There's a stretch of back-to-back port days, so those days are busy, but the sea days around them give you time to recharge. The route threads through 3 countries along the Western Mediterranean coast: Italy, Malta and Spain. Most ports give you about 9 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, There are 9 restaurants on MSC World Europa, so you'd need to double up a few evenings to try them all in 7 nights. A spring departure helps too: decent weather and a calmer feel at each port. Hard to ask for much more than that, honestly.
