Keeping it local
We’ve teamed up with locals in each of our ports to reveal sides of places you’ve yet to explore — from the people who know the destinations best.
Barcelona
More than just a late-night party town, the capital of Catalonia is full of tranquil, museum-lined mornings and afternoons sipping cava with gorgeous views of the Med.
Palma de Mallorca
Feel the bliss only a secluded Balearic island can offer, biking through whimsical villages or visiting a family-owned winery.
Ibiza
Beach all day. Party all night. Whether you're visiting Ibiza for its sun-soaked days or wild nightclubs, you're in for a treat.
Cannes
An iconic and stunning resort destination in the French Riviera, Cannes' unparalleled natural beauty rivals the A-list celebrities who vacation here.
Ajaccio, Corsica
Filled with slopes and centuries worth of history, Ajaccio also boasts art (crafted both by nature or in the baroque period).
La Spezia
On the border of Liguria and Tuscany, La Spezia allows for blissful day trips into the countryside, including Cinque Terre.
Amalfi Coast (Salerno)
One of the most sought after vacation destinations in the world, prepare for the beauty Salerno has to offer.
Catania, Sicily
Mount Etna in the morning. Architecture in the afternoon. Just a day in this city and its electric energy will have you yearning to return... as soon as possible.
Civitavecchia (Rome)
The seaside entryway for those headed into Rome for over 2,000 years. Its ancient ruins, baths, and museum offer your first taste of Roman culture.

Let’s make waves
An ocean of opportunities calling your name.
Total Eclipse of the (Med)
Discover architectural charm, from the colorful piazzas to Roman ruins and ornate cathedrals. The Palazzo degli Elefanti, and Cattedrale di Sant’Agata are among the most impressive, not to mention the 13th-century Ursino Castle. This city is also defined by its natural beauties. It sits at the base of the 11,000-foot active volcano, and several hiking trails wind to the top for those intrepid enough to brave the mountain.
