Ocean Discovery – Ravenna, Dubrovnik & Kotor

About this cruise

There's a reason 7-night cruises are the most popular length. This one sails from Ravenna on May 28, 2028 and visits Dubrovnik, Kotor, Katakolon, Mykonos, Santorini and Piraeus (Athens). You wind up in Piraeus (Athens), so it's worth planning a night or two there. The itinerary clusters several port calls together. Fast-paced for a few days, then the sea days hit and you can catch your breath. Crossing 3 borders through the Eastern Mediterranean: Croatia, Montenegro and Greece. You'll notice the culture shift at every stop. You get around 11 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, Norwegian Pearl takes the food seriously, with 14 restaurants to choose from. 6 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. Couples, small groups, or anyone who wants proper time away will find this hits the spot. Pro tip: fly in the day before. Ravenna has plenty to offer, and you'll board relaxed instead of rushed. A May departure catches that sweet window of warm-enough weather before the summer rush. Hard to ask for much more than that, honestly.
