Ocean Discovery – Naples, Palermo & Tunis

About this cruise

A week or so at sea, a few great ports, and nothing to organise once you're on board. This 7-night sailing from Naples on March 27, 2028 visits Palermo, La Goulette (Tunis), Barcelona, Marseille, Genoa and Civitavecchia (Rome). The trip wraps in Civitavecchia (Rome), 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 Western Mediterranean route takes in Italy, Tunisia, Spain and France, 4 countries, and the differences show up in the food, the architecture, and the mood. Keep an eye out for Palermo: Arab-Norman splendour in Sicily's capital. Roughly 9 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. Costa Pacifica carries up to 3,014 guests over 13 decks. Multiple pools, a theatre, and more restaurants than you'll get through. Families and groups will find plenty to do: waterslides, shows, multiple pools, and something for every age. If you can, add a night in Naples before boarding. It's a good city to wander. And March is a good time to go. Mild weather, things starting to bloom, and fewer people than summer. That's 7 nights well spent.
