Ocean Discovery – Warnemunde, Gdynia & Tallinn

About this cruise

A week or so at sea, a few great ports, and nothing to organise once you're on board. This 10-night sailing from Warnemünde (Rostock) on April 25, 2028 visits Gdynia (Gdansk), Tallinn and Helsinki, with additional stops along the Baltic. You wind up in Copenhagen, so it's worth planning a night or two there. Expect a run of consecutive ports, 7 stops total, with the busiest days packed close together. The sea days around them feel earned. The Baltic route takes in Poland, Estonia, Finland, Sweden and Denmark, 5 countries, and the differences show up in the food, the architecture, and the mood. Visby stands out. It's A Viking-age jewel behind medieval walls. Roughly 11 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. MSC Splendida keeps you well fed. 6 places to eat, with 2 included in the fare and a few specialty spots if you're in the mood. With more nights comes more time for the ship's rhythm to kick in: morning coffee in the same spot, evening shows, late-night conversations on deck. Families and groups will find plenty to do: waterslides, shows, multiple pools, and something for every age. If you can, add a night in Warnemünde (Rostock) before boarding. It's a good city to wander. And April is a good time to go. Mild weather, things starting to bloom, and fewer people than summer. All in all, it's a solid trip.
