Why you should cruise the Mediterranean in winter

Why you should cruise the Mediterranean in winter

Why you should cruise the Mediterranean in winter View Mediterranean Cruise Deals [vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]There’s a great deal to be said for cruising the Mediterranean in the winter months. While I love a sea day under the hot summer sunshine as much as the next person, queuing for hours to get into popular attractions ashore is not ideal. Wading through a forest of selfie sticks to get the perfect shot is tiresome. If the lure of cruising is exploring the cultural delights of a new port every day, rather than topping up the tan, a low-season voyage could be the perfect solution.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] Which cruise lines visit the Mediterranean in winter A fair few cruise lines now offer off-season Mediterranean cruises. Celebrity and MSC Cruises both have ships making year-round circuits of the Mediterranean, while Viking Ocean has a specific Quiet Season Mediterranean series of voyages in November and December, taking in all the popular ports from Rome and Barcelona to Livorno and Dubrovnik. Royal Caribbean, Celebrity Cruises, Seabourn and Oceania all have eastern Mediterranean sailings well into November, long after the summer crowds have dispersed. Princess Cruises offers an extended Europe season – and there are, of course, any number of world cruise itineraries leaving the UK each January and heading down through the Mediterranean towards the sunshine. You could book the first sector of one of these – Southampton to Athens or Dubai, for example, and dose up on culture along the way.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] The benefits of winter Mediterranean cruises Popular European ports take on a different feel off-season. There is a sense that the locals have their cities back. Nobody looks harassed, or tries to sell you anything. On a recent cruise with Viking, we wandered around the Piazza Navona in Rome, snapping pictures of the famous fountains against a moody sky, no tour groups in the foreground. In Cagliari, the capital of Sicily, we had the cobbled old town to ourselves and later pottered around a small market buying honey and olive oil, hearing only Italian voices. Barcelona was even better; we swanned straight into the Sagrada Familia cathedral, normally heaving with visitors, without queuing. In December, it was just warm enough for a glass of wine and some tasty tapas outside in a pretty square at lunchtime. The list goes on; imagine Dubrovnik if you are on the only ship in port, with the path around the city’s ramparts all to yourself. Or Venice in misty November, so much more beautiful and atmospheric than in steamy August.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] But what about the weather? Of course, you do take a gamble on the weather by cruising off season. We certainly had some windy days, but in the Mediterranean, strong winds can kick up at any time of year. In November and December, it is generally too chilly to dine on deck and you might not spend much time on your balcony – but maybe that’s a good reason to save money and for once, not book a balcony cabin. Picking a ship that has enough to keep you amused in cool weather cruising is important; a vessel with a covered pool, for example. Colder weather can even be a bonding experience; on my recent cruise, there was quite the party spirit in the hot tubs every evening as we left port (until it was time to get out and brave the chill).[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]The main factor is to pick a smart itinerary that covers plenty of options for inclement weather. After all, if you have always wanted to visit the Acropolis Museum in Athens, or the Uffizi in Florence, or the Picasso Museum in Barcelona, without the crowds, it really doesn’t matter if the skies outside are grey.

Eastern Mediterranean: What to see and where to cruise

Eastern Mediterranean: What to see and where to cruise

Eastern Mediterranean: What to see and where to cruise View All Mediterranean Cruises The Eastern Mediterranean extends from Venice through the Ionian Sea to the Aegean; the Turkish coast and further south; the shores of Israel, Cyprus and Lebanon; represents the greatest concentration of historical interest in the cruising world. In a single voyage you could see the iconic antiquities of Jerusalem, Athens, Delos, Olympia and Ephesus. Or you could squeeze through the Corinth Canal on a smaller ship, learn about Theseus and the Minotaur in the Palace of Knossos on Crete, gaze up at the chunky castle of the Knights of St John at Lindos, and look for Game of Thrones shooting locations from the ramparts of Dubrovnik. This is also a region of great natural beauty with tremendous variety, from the pebbly beaches and crystal clear waters of Croatia, to the towering black cliffs of volcanic Santorini and the softer hills and cypress groves of the Ionian. Mixing culture with beach time and watersports is easy; Mykonos has gorgeous beaches, for example, or you could join a sea kayaking excursion in Dubrovnik, or snap a selfie on the famous Shipwreck Beach on Kefalonia.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] Choose your route So how do you choose a route? Typically, an eastern Mediterranean fly-cruise would sail Venice-Athens, or round trip from either, or Rome-Athens (taking in part of the western Med as well). Plenty of lines offer fly-cruises from Venice, among them Norwegian Cruise Line, Royal Caribbean Cruises, MSC Cruises, P&O Cruises, Cunard and Celebrity Cruises. You can get a long way south and east without flying, too; P&O Cruises offers several Greek Islands cruises from Southampton, including a couple in the school holidays. Typically, in just over a fortnight, you will sail all the way to Rhodes, also visiting Athens, Mykonos and Katakolon. A few ships still call at Istanbul, which used to offer a dramatic end to a meander through the region, but most lines are steering clear until the security situation is more stable. A lot still visit Kusadasi, though, which is the jumping off point for the antiquities at Ephesus and remains one of the big bucket-list ports of the eastern Med, the others being Venice, Santorini, Rhodes, Athens, Dubrovnik and Kotor. The temporary demise of Turkey has led to a surge in popularity of Croatia and, by default, Montenegro, as the gorgeous old medieval town of Kotor, perched at the end of a long and spectacular fjord, is an easy hop from Dubrovnik. As a rule of thumb, the smaller the ship, the more adventurous the itinerary, so on a smaller vessel exploring Croatia, expect to see elegant coastal towns like Split and Zadar, or Korcula encircled by ramparts. There is a fashion for more in-depth exploration nowadays as cruisers seek more adventurous experiences on board expeditions cruises or more excursion focused itineraries. This idea of late sailings and overnights in port is a pleasing development in Mediterranean cruising and should be taken advantage of. If there is one place you want to be in port for ‘magic hour’, that golden time either side of sunset, it is the Greek islands, Italy or Croatia. Cunard Cruise Line and Celebrity Cruises are among the big ship cruise lines offering more overnights on their Mediterranean itineraries, while Azamara both keep their mid-sized ships in port till late at night. The far eastern reaches of the Mediterranean, Jerusalem and Galilee, are high on many cruisers’ priority lists but are, of course, more subject to political volatility than anywhere else on the cruising map. Israel is certainly seeing a resurgence and cruise lines visiting include Celebrity, Cunard, P&O Cruises, Oceania, Seabourn, Azamara, Viking Ocean and Holland America, although more in the shoulder season months than the baking midsummer. See thge best of Egypt as you visit Cairo and the Pyramids from the Mediterranean port of Alexandria. You are most likely to venture here if you book a segment of a world cruise on board Fred. Olsen or Viking Ocean or a repositioning cruise to the Middle East, another region growing in popularity; luxury lines Crystal and Silversea both offer sailings from the eastern Med to Dubai.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] When to visit So when should you visit? Peak season for the Eastern Mediterranean is June to September but July and August, the busiest months, are not necessarily the best as temperatures are punishing and crowds can be overwhelming. If you are cruising with children in the school holidays, do build in plenty of beach stops and (dare we say this?), in more challenging ports like Athens, with young children in tow, you could even consider staying on-board instead of traipsing round the antiquities. You will have the pool to yourself. May and June are particularly pleasant, as is mid-September onwards, right up until November. A couple of lines, namely MSC Cruises and Viking Ocean, offer wonderful off-season eastern Med cruises, too, sailing right through the winter, which means you can prowl the alleyways of Venice or take in the magnificent Acropolis without the crowds.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Eastern Mediterranean cruises encompass history, culture and natural beauty. Perfect for relaxation as a couple, a family or even a solo traveller, these cruise holidays will pique your curiosity and help you return home full of wonder.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]View All Mediterranean Cruises
