Ocean Discovery – Civitavecchia (Rome), Ajaccio & Santa Margherita

About this cruise

A trip this long changes your rhythm entirely, and that's very much the point. 35 nights from Civitavecchia (Rome) on April 8, 2028, visiting Ajaccio, Santa Margherita Ligure and Cannes, with additional stops along the Western Mediterranean. You finish in Los Angeles. The final stretch is open ocean, which gives you time to process everything you've seen and use the ship one last time. Crossing 10 borders through the Western Mediterranean: France, Italy, Spain, Morocco, Portugal, United States, Colombia, Panama, El Salvador and Mexico. You'll notice the culture shift at every stop. You get around 11 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, Coral Princess takes the food seriously, with 11 restaurants to choose from. 7 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. One of the underrated parts of a longer cruise: you actually get to know people. The couple from dinner, the group at trivia, the bartender who remembers your drink. Suits retirees, remote workers, or anyone who doesn't need to be anywhere else for a while. Pro tip: fly in the day before. Civitavecchia (Rome) has plenty to offer, and you'll board relaxed instead of rushed. An April departure catches that sweet window of warm-enough weather before the summer rush. You'll probably start planning the next one before this one's even over.
