Trade Wind Crossing – Málaga & Antigua

About this cruise

If you've got 14 nights to work with, this sailing from Barcelona on November 5, 2027 through Palma de Mallorca, Alicante and Málaga, with additional stops along the Western Mediterranean is genuinely one of the better ways to spend them. Disembarkation is in Bridgetown. A few ports come in quick succession, which is great for sightseeing but means you'll appreciate the sea days when they arrive. 4 countries (Spain, Antigua & Barbuda, St. Vincent & Grenadines and Barbados) across the Western Mediterranean, each with its own character. If one port sticks with you, it'll probably be Bridgetown, Rum, reggae, and a coral-fringed coast. Around 10 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. MSC World Asia joined the MSC Cruises's lineup in 2026. Still has that new-ship feel. 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. It's the kind of trip you actually remember afterwards.
