Breeze-Swept Voyage – Barcelona & Cannes

About this cruise

You board in Palma de Mallorca on October 9, 2026 for 7 nights visiting Barcelona, Cannes, Genoa, La Spezia and Civitavecchia (Rome), and you come back from this kind of trip wondering why you don't do it more often. A few ports come in quick succession, which is great for sightseeing but means you'll appreciate the sea days when they arrive. 3 countries (Spain, France and Italy) across the Western Mediterranean, each with its own character. Don't rush through La Spezia, which is known as Gateway to the pastel villages of Cinque Terre. Around 10 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. You won't go hungry on MSC Grandiosa. 1 restaurants come with the fare, plus 5 more when you feel like treating yourself. The autumn timing is underrated too. Good weather, calmer seas, and a more relaxed ship. All told, 5 ports across 7 nights covers a lot.
