Oceania Cruises has announced a slate of new Mediterranean cruise offerings for 2025, ranging from nine to 56 days in length. The line’s ships Marina and Nautica will operate the voyages, which will visit local islands, resort towns, cities and lesser known ports across the Mediterranean, Aegean and Adriatic regions.
Itineraries will feature marquee embarkation and disembarkation ports such as Athens, Barcelona, Istanbul, Rome and Lisbon. However, the voyages will also call at jet-set destinations including Monte Carlo, Cannes (France), Positano and Sorrento (both in Italy), as well as more off-the-beaten-path locales such as Tirana and Sarande, Albania; Trapani, Sicily; Calvi and Propriano, Corsica; and Sibenik, Croatia.
“Oceania Cruises is rightly renowned for its inventive and captivating itineraries, and our array of 2025 Mediterranean sailings is the perfect way to spotlight one of the most popular and exciting cruise regions of the world,” said Frank A. Del Rio, president of Oceania Cruises. “With shore excursions to inspire everyone, from active, adventurous types to history buffs to foodies, our small, luxurious ships are the perfect way to discover this majestic region of the world.”
