Mediterranean

Mediterranean Cruise

Italy, the Côte d'Azur, the Adriatic, Greece and Turkey.

It is the light over the Mediterranean, warm and clear as over no other sea, from the Amalfi Coast to the Cyclades. Now it is the old town of Dubrovnik rising golden from the water, now Etna behind Taormina, now a quiet bay where only a few sailing yachts lie at anchor. The Mediterranean cannot be reduced to a single destination. It is the sum of many small longings.

The Mediterranean is the old stage of Europe, and from the sea it shows itself at its finest. In the west, Italy with its Riviera, Sicily and the Côte d'Azur, along with Barcelona and the Balearics. In the east, Greece with Athens and the Cyclades, the Turkish Aegean with Kusadasi and Ephesus. In between, the Adriatic with Dubrovnik, Kotor and Split, and again and again Valletta on Malta, Syracuse and Rome. These are harbours you enter rather than merely visit.

Small ships are made for this abundance. Silversea and Ponant call at the smaller harbours and linger where there is room for calm, while the megaliners drop anchor off the same old quays. The season runs from April to October, with the finest light in spring and autumn. The voyages usually last around eight nights.

Because the Mediterranean is so vast, we also present its regions as travel worlds in their own right: the western Mediterranean, the eastern Mediterranean, and the Adriatic and Croatia.

Under sail

The queens of the Mediterranean: under sail

No sea is sailed with such affection as the Mediterranean. Aboard the tall ships of the Sea Cloud fleet the crew still climb aloft into the yards and set the sails by hand, canvas by canvas; the windjammers of Star Clippers set their sails by winch from the deck and are an equally majestic sight. Whether off Taormina, in the Aegean or off Dubrovnik, under full sail the voyage becomes an experience you never forget.
