Odyssey’s Atlantic Wake – Bermuda to Athens

About this cruise

Somewhere around day five the ship stops being transport and starts being home. This 25-night sailing from Fort Lauderdale on October 6, 2026 visits Kings Wharf, Ponta Delgada and Cádiz, with additional stops along the Western Mediterranean. The sailing ends in Piraeus (Athens). The first couple of days are at sea, which gives you time to settle in and get to know the ship before the ports begin. Crossing 6 borders through the Western Mediterranean: Bermuda, Portugal, Spain, France, Italy and Greece. You'll notice the culture shift at every stop. Most ports give you about 11 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, Island Princess takes the food seriously, with 6 restaurants to choose from. 3 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. By night three you start recognising faces; by night ten you're swapping numbers. That's the magic of a longer sailing. A proper voyage for people who like to take their time and hate rushing through destinations. Pro tip: fly in the day before. Fort Lauderdale has plenty to offer, and you'll board relaxed instead of rushed. Being shoulder season helps: golden light, comfortable weather, and shorter queues at the popular spots. If you've been thinking about a cruise, this 25-night sailing is a strong place to start.
