Navigator's Coastline – Kristiansand, Paris & Malaga

About this cruise

There's a reason 9-night cruises are the most popular length. This one sails from Copenhagen on September 12, 2026 and visits Kristiansand, Le Havre (Paris), Vigo, Málaga, Alicante and Barcelona. You get off in Barcelona, which is a good excuse to tack on a few days on land. Port days and sea days take turns, which is about as well-paced as a cruise itinerary gets. It's a proper Western Mediterranean tour: 3 countries, from Norway to 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, Costa Diadema holds 3,724 guests across 14 decks. It's a big ship, with plenty to keep you busy. A September sailing dodges the peak crowds while the weather is still cooperating. Well timed. 9 nights of not thinking about anything except where to eat next. That's the pitch.
