Ocean Discovery – Fort Lauderdale, Ponta Delgada & Lisbon

About this cruise

Somewhere around day five the ship stops being transport and starts being home. This 13-night sailing from Fort Lauderdale on April 22, 2028 visits Ponta Delgada, Lisbon, Vigo, A Coruña and Southampton. You finish in Southampton. The first couple of days are at sea, which gives you time to settle in and get to know the ship before the ports begin. The Western Mediterranean route takes in Portugal, Spain and United Kingdom, 3 countries, and the differences show up in the food, the architecture, and the mood. Most ports give you about 9 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, Celebrity Beyond keeps you well fed. 16 places to eat, with 8 included in the fare and a few specialty spots if you're in the mood. By night three you start recognising faces; by night ten you're swapping numbers. That's the magic of a longer sailing. If you like having options (restaurants, bars, activities, entertainment), a big ship delivers that. A spring departure helps too: decent weather and a calmer feel at each port. You'll probably start planning the next one before this one's even over.
