Granite Mooring – Genoa, Malta & Spain
About this cruise
7 nights, 5 ports, all from Marseille on May 1, 2027. The route visits Genoa, Naples, Messina, Valletta and Barcelona and the whole thing just flows. The itinerary clusters several port calls together. Fast-paced for a few days, then the sea days hit and you can catch your breath. The route threads through 3 countries along the Western Mediterranean coast: Italy, Malta 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, MSC World Asia launched in 2026, so everything on board is still new. You can tell. A May departure catches that sweet window of warm-enough weather before the summer rush. Whether you've cruised before or not, this 7-night itinerary is a genuinely good one.
