Ocean Discovery – Civitavecchia (Rome), Naples & Palermo

About this cruise

9 nights is that sweet spot where you actually start to relax. This sailing from Palma de Mallorca on April 10, 2027 visits Civitavecchia (Rome), Naples, Palermo, Cagliari and Tarragona and doesn't try to cram in too much. A few ports come in quick succession, which is great for sightseeing but means you'll appreciate the sea days when they arrive. Roman ruins at one stop, Renaissance piazzas at the next. Centuries of history at every quay. Don't rush through Cagliari, which is known as Sardinia's sun-bleached capital of flamingos and fortresses. Around 12 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. Mein Schiff Flow (2026) is one of the newer ships out there, with current design and recent tech throughout. Families and groups will find plenty to do: waterslides, shows, multiple pools, and something for every age. If you can, add a night in Palma de Mallorca before boarding. It's a good city to wander. Timing-wise, spring usually means comfortable temperatures and lower prices than peak season. All told, 5 ports across 9 nights covers a lot.
