Costa Smeralda: 6-Night Ocean Cruises

Santa Cruz de Tenerife is the capital of Tenerife, the largest of Spain's Canary Islands, located in the Atlantic Ocean about 300 km off the coast of Morocco.

Barcelona cruise port is the busiest in the Mediterranean, handling millions of passengers a year across multiple terminals. The city behind it earns that traffic.

Genoa cruise port is one of the main embarkation points for western Mediterranean itineraries, particularly for MSC and Costa Cruises, which both have roots here.
