Ocean Discovery – Tunis, Tangier & Malaga

About this cruise

A 12-night sailing gives you something shorter trips can't: the feeling that you're not just visiting places but actually living somewhere else for a while. This one leaves Palermo on November 30, 2027 and visits La Goulette (Tunis), Tangier and Málaga, with additional stops along the Western Mediterranean. A few ports come in quick succession, which is great for sightseeing but means you'll appreciate the sea days when they arrive. 5 countries (Tunisia, Morocco, Spain, France and Italy) across the Western Mediterranean, each with its own character. Of the stops, Naples tends to be the one people talk about: Chaos, pizza, and passion beneath Vesuvius. 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. The autumn timing is underrated too. Good weather, calmer seas, and a more relaxed ship. Sometimes the best trips are the ones you just go ahead and book.
