The Adriatic coast is becoming an increasingly popular destination for cruise visitors, and it’s easy to see why.
The port cities of Slovenia, Croatia and Montenegro are rich in history and architectural gems and the coast is as beautiful as any in the Med.
The Romans left their mark on the Croatian port of Split, creating the incredible Diocletian’s Palace that stands well preserved amidst the elegant waterfront buildings of this fashionable Dalmatian town.
Cruising into the beautiful medieval walled city of Dubrovnik, farther down the Adriatic coast, is one of the great cruising experiences. The spectacular Old Town – with its pretty harbour, towering ramparts, creamy stone pavements and red-roofed buildings – is crammed with architectural wonders.
Adriatic cruises often include a visit to glorious Venice. Arriving in Venice by boat is a timeless experience. The campanile, Doge’s Palace and ancient basilica in St Marks Square have welcomed seafarers for centuries. The maze of canals, bridges and cobbled streets in this World Heritage City gives you only two choices of getting around: the waterbus or old-fashioned walking. Then, of course there’s the joy of a gondola ride.
The cultural wonders of Greece are exceptional and a Greek cruising holiday is the perfect way to discover them. The ancient Greek culture spread widely across the Mediterranean, see also Eastern Med cruises, including the beautiful west-facing islands of Corfu and Cephalonia. These striking islands bring plenty of opportunities to enjoy spectacular beaches, harbour-front tavernas and the winding streets of romantic Greek villages.
