Ocean Discovery – Malaga, Cadiz & Lisbon

About this cruise

A week or so at sea, a few great ports, and nothing to organise once you're on board. This 10-night sailing from Marseille on September 23, 2028 visits Málaga, Cádiz and Lisbon, with additional stops along the Western Mediterranean. Expect a run of consecutive ports, 7 stops total, with the busiest days packed close together. The sea days around them feel earned. 3 countries (Spain, Portugal and Italy) across the Western Mediterranean, each with its own character. Don't rush through Port Mahon, which is known as Menorca's deep-water harbour of gin and Georgian charm. Roughly 9 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. You won't go hungry on MSC Sinfonia. 4 restaurants come with the fare, plus 0 more when you feel like treating yourself. The shows alone are worth the extra nights. You'll catch comedy, music, theatre, and themed evenings you'd miss on a shorter trip. And September is a good call. Still warm, less crowded, and usually cheaper too. All told, 7 ports across 10 nights covers a lot.
