Ocean Discovery – Piraeus (Athens), Mykonos & Salerno

About this cruise

A week or so at sea, a few great ports, and nothing to organise once you're on board. This 8-night sailing from Piraeus (Athens) on October 15, 2028 visits Mykonos, Salerno, Civitavecchia (Rome), Livorno (Florence/Pisa), Palma de Mallorca and Barcelona. You wind up in Barcelona, so it's worth planning a night or two there. Expect a run of consecutive ports, 6 stops total, with the busiest days packed close together. The sea days around them feel earned. 3 countries (Greece, Italy and Spain) across the Western Mediterranean, each with its own character. Livorno (Florence/Pisa) stands out. It's Tuscan art and the Leaning Tower await. Roughly 11 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. You won't go hungry on Scarlet Lady. 12 restaurants come with the fare, plus 1 more when you feel like treating yourself. And October is a good call. Still warm, less crowded, and usually cheaper too. All in all, it's a solid trip.
