Ocean Discovery – Santorini, Chania & Katakolon (Olympia)

About this cruise

40 nights starts to feel like a proper adventure. You leave Piraeus (Athens) on September 4, 2027 and the route takes you through Santorini, Souda (Chania) and Katakolon, with additional stops along the Eastern Mediterranean at a pace where there's never any need to rush. A few ports come in quick succession, which is great for sightseeing but means you'll appreciate the sea days when they arrive. Crossing 7 borders through the Eastern Mediterranean: Greece, Italy, Malta, Croatia, Montenegro, France and Türkiye. You'll notice the culture shift at every stop. People come back from this cruise talking about Livorno (Florence/Pisa): Tuscan art and the Leaning Tower await. Around 11 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. Enchanted Princess takes the food seriously, with 13 restaurants to choose from. 5 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. The longer time on board means you'll catch several shows, themed nights, and start feeling like a regular at your favourite bar. Families and groups will find plenty to do: waterslides, shows, multiple pools, and something for every age. The autumn timing is underrated too. Good weather, calmer seas, and a more relaxed ship. 21 ports, 7 countries, one suitcase. That's the appeal.
