Oceania Cruises, the world's leading culinary- and
destination-focused cruise line, has debuted an array of new 2025 Mediterranean
sailings, ranging from nine to 56 days, to whisk guests to some of the most
breathtaking destinations in Europe. The line's Marina and Nautica will
set sail on enticing voyages taking in iconic islands in the Mediterranean,
Aegean and Adriatic; well-loved European resort towns and bustling cities, and
lesser-known ports of call.
Cities including Athens, Barcelona, Istanbul, Rome and Lisbon frame
the 16 voyages, allowing the ships to meander from lively jet-set resort towns
such as Monte Carlo, Cannes, Positano and Sorrento, to hidden
gems including Tirana and Sarande in Albania; Trapani in Sicily;
Calvi and Propriano in Corsica, and Sibenik in Croatia.
Thanks to Oceania Cruises' extensive set of
small-group, immersive shore excursions, guests can rediscover
previously-visited favorites through a new lens, or discover new places for the
very first time. For example, whilst in Santorini, guests can choose an
adventurous tour of the island's active volcanoes, or whilst in Montenegro,
see a new side of Kotor by exploring Europe's southernmost
fjord, Boka Bay.
"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," stated 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."
New 2025 Mediterranean Itineraries
Marina
The 1,250-guest ship, Marina, will undergo an
expansive refurbishment in May 2024. The refurbishment will include the
addition of two new dining options: Aquamar Kitchen, the new wellness-inspired
dining venue which debuted on Vista this year; and the al fresco
evening Pizzeria, serving spectacular Italian dishes including pizzas and
burrata with stunning seascape views; plus an expanded poolside ice cream
parlor serving milkshakes and smoothies. All Penthouse Suites and bathrooms
will be completely reinspired, and the ship's public areas will be refreshed.
