Ocean Discovery – Lisbon, Porto & Funchal
About this cruise
A week or so at sea, a few great ports, and nothing to organise once you're on board. This 9-night sailing from Lisbon on September 16, 2027 visits Leixões (Porto), Funchal, Casablanca, Tangier, Málaga and Barcelona. The trip wraps in Barcelona, so you won't retrace your steps. Expect a run of consecutive ports, 6 stops total, with the busiest days packed close together. The sea days around them feel earned. The route threads through 3 countries along the Western Mediterranean coast: Portugal, Morocco and Spain. Keep an eye out for Barcelona: Where Gothic grandeur meets avant-garde genius. Roughly 10 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. There are 12 restaurants on Mariner Of The Seas, so you'd need to double up a few evenings to try them all in 9 nights. Lisbon itself is worth spending some time in. Don't just treat it as a departure point. And September is a good call. Still warm, less crowded, and usually cheaper too. That's 9 nights well spent.
