But for now, the ships and the passengers keep coming to these enthralling destinations. There are two ways to cruise the Mediterranean: The latter has the benefit of speed and allows you to do a seven-night cruise; the former adds at least two sea days in each direction as you have to cross the Bay of Biscay — most itineraries are 14 nights or more.

Cruising the Mediterranean and Beyond

There are also two main cruise areas. The western Mediterranean , bordered by Spain and Italy, includes Sardinia, Corsica and the Balearics, and the eastern Mediterranean , on the eastern side of Italy, includes Greece, Croatia and Turkey. Some cruises stay in the west, perhaps sailing from Barcelona to the French Riviera and Italy; others remain in the east, cruising from Venice to Athens, Istanbul and the Greek islands.

Many lines offer seven-night cruises, which are great for beginners out to find their cruising legs, but there are also longer itineraries that combine the best of both sides of the Med. And when the ships are sailing in the eastern Med and to North Africa, there is a good chance of better weather.

Cruise ships berth close to the bottom of the famous La Rambla, a lively street filled with cafes, souvenir shops and street performers. Head into the Gothic Quarter to the east, and explore its warren of alleyways.
