Mediterranean Cruises

Considered by early civilisations to be the centre of the ancient world, the 21st century Mediterranean Sea shares its shoreline with 22 nations, while it’s eclectic mix of the Adriatic, Aegen, Balearic, Ionian Tyrrhenian and Ligurian Seas feed its reputation as a sailing mecca.

Successive empires, countless invasions and vigorous trade routes have gifted this region a rich tapestry of traditions, cultures and peoples. Its shores abound with ruined cities, resort towns, popular beaches and colourful, cliffside villages. Immersive, educating, and engaging, our voyages weave a tale of Europe’s most impressive coastline – affectionately known to all who sail on her as ‘The Med’.
