Ocean Discovery – Savona, Naples & Palermo

About this cruise

12 nights starts to feel like a proper adventure. You leave Marseille on March 27, 2027 and the route takes you through Genoa, Naples and Palermo, with additional stops along the Western 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 4 borders through the Western Mediterranean: Italy, Tunisia, Morocco and Spain. You'll notice the culture shift at every stop. People come back from this cruise talking about La Goulette (Tunis): Gateway to Carthage and the Tunis medina. Around 9 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. At 114,500 gross tons, Costa Pacifica is big enough that you can find a quiet corner or a crowd, depending on your mood. 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. Timing-wise, spring usually means comfortable temperatures and lower prices than peak season. 9 ports, 4 countries, one suitcase. That's the appeal.
