Ocean Discovery – Marseille, Barcelona & Malaga
About this cruise
Somewhere around day five the ship stops being transport and starts being home. This 34-night sailing from Marseille on November 1, 2027 visits Barcelona, Málaga and Gibraltar, with additional stops along the Caribbean. The sailing ends in La Romana. There's a stretch of back-to-back port days, so those days are busy, but the sea days around them give you time to recharge. 11 countries (Spain, United Kingdom, Portugal, United States, Bahamas, Dominican Republic, St. Vincent & Grenadines, Barbados, Guadeloupe, St. Kitts & Nevis and British Virgin Islands) across the Caribbean, each with its own character. Most ports give you about 10 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, Costa Fascinosa: 3,014 guests, 13 decks. Entertainment, dining, and enough space that it never feels cramped. By night three you start recognising faces; by night ten you're swapping numbers. That's the magic of a longer sailing. Being shoulder season helps: golden light, comfortable weather, and shorter queues at the popular spots. If you've been thinking about a cruise, this 34-night sailing is a strong place to start.

Getting there: out to Marseille, home from La Romana
This cruise does not return to Marseille. It ends in La Romana, so your flight home leaves from there.
