What to do on your Mediterranean cruise?

The Mediterranean Sea and its ports of call are home to many treasures to explore. Many of the ports of departure are themselves places that deserve your full attention. So why not stay here to start your cruise on the right foot and get into the rhythm of the Dolce Vita?

Marseille, for example, is one of France's leading ports hosting a large number of cruise ships. The city is known for its old port, its cathedral "La bonne mère" perched on the heights, its endless creeks covered with charismatic pine trees and hosting translucent turquoise waters, not to mention its cuisine offering delicious seafood specialties.

Rome (Civitavecchia) is also an ideal cruise port to start your holiday. Rome is La Dolce Vita in the true sense of the word, with its history, architectural and cultural heritage, and Italian specialities, everything is there for you to enjoy during a stopover or a stay before your departure.

Barcelona, the Catalan capital, is an authentic and friendly place in Spain. Known for its typical narrow streets, its monuments with original and meticulous architecture, a Latin atmosphere that warms the hearts... This is a city not to be missed during a Mediterranean cruise!

A cruise in the Mediterranean means magnificent ports of call, but it is also the opportunity to spend days at sea relaxing and enjoying yourself on board the cruise ship of your choice, taking advantage of a multitude of activities and services. It can also be the possibility of appreciating the journey at sea by observing the horizon and the maritime environment that surrounds you, or of being dazzled by a unique sunset reflected in the ship's wake...

A unique feeling of freedom will overwhelm you thanks to this atypical way of travel.

Companies that sail across the Mediterranean :

What is the best time to go on a Mediterranean cruise?

The Mediterranean climate is mild and temperate all year round. This means that you can take a Mediterranean cruise in winter without fear of too low temperatures and enjoy all the cultural activities and visits that are available to you. The Mediterranean winter is mild and not very humid.

Summer, from June to September, is dry and hot. It has the ideal temperatures for a relaxing trip, with a programme full of beach days, swimming and sunbathing. Be sure to stay well hydrated!

The Indian summer in the Mediterranean extends the mildness during the months of September and October. During these months, the sun and high temperatures are always present. The landscapes start to take on their autumnal colors, for magnificent panoramas.

The low season' period is between November and April. During this period you can get the best cruise fares.

Because of the almost ubiquitous good weather and mild temperatures, a Mediterranean cruise is an opportunity for travelers to relax and pamper themselves. Your days will be punctuated by beaches, naps in the sun, sunbathing sessions, water games and water sports.

Safircruise makes you discover all the cruises in the Mediterranean from a multitude of ports. Select the cruise that will make your stay unforgettable!
