Ocean Discovery – Barcelona, Palma De Mallorca & Valencia

About this cruise

7 nights is that sweet spot where you actually start to relax. This sailing from Barcelona on September 27, 2026 visits Palma de Mallorca, Valencia, Motril, Gibraltar, Cádiz and Tarragona and doesn't try to cram in too much. The trip wraps in Tarragona, so you won't retrace your steps. A few ports come in quick succession, which is great for sightseeing but means you'll appreciate the sea days when they arrive. Warm plazas, gelato by the harbour, and old things everywhere you look. Keep an eye out for Palma de Mallorca: A Gothic cathedral mirrored in the harbour. Around 11 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. There are 14 restaurants on Norwegian Dawn, so you'd need to double up a few evenings to try them all in 7 nights. Barcelona itself is worth spending some time in. Don't just treat it as a departure point. The autumn timing is underrated too. Good weather, calmer seas, and a more relaxed ship. That's 7 nights well spent.
