Ocean Discovery – Barcelona, Malaga & Gibraltar

About this cruise

If you've got 33 nights to work with, this sailing from Barcelona on November 2, 2027 through Málaga, Gibraltar and Ponta Delgada, with additional stops along the Caribbean is genuinely one of the better ways to spend them. The sailing ends in La Romana. A few ports come in quick succession, which is great for sightseeing but means you'll appreciate the sea days when they arrive. Crossing 11 borders through the Caribbean: Spain, United Kingdom, Portugal, United States, Bahamas, Dominican Republic, St. Vincent & Grenadines, Barbados, Guadeloupe, St. Kitts & Nevis and British Virgin Islands. You'll notice the culture shift at every stop. People come back from this cruise talking about Ponta Delgada: Volcanic beauty in the middle of the Atlantic. Around 10 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. At 113,321 gross tons, Costa Fascinosa is big enough that you can find a quiet corner or a crowd, depending on your mood. There are enough performances, events, and social mixers on a cruise this length that you couldn't do them all if you tried. And that's a good problem. Families and groups will find plenty to do: waterslides, shows, multiple pools, and something for every age. The autumn timing is underrated too. Good weather, calmer seas, and a more relaxed ship. 13 ports, 11 countries, one suitcase. That's the appeal.
