WANDERLUST SATISFIED
Ancient Aegean to The Modern Med
Catania, an ancient port city on the east coast of Sicily, sits right at the base of Mt. Etna. Don’t worry, though. You can totally safely climb to the top of the volcano via a number of trails for some of the best views of Sicily on the entire island. In the city itself, you’ll find the famous central square, Piazza del Duomo, as well as the ornate Catania Cathedral, a lively fish market, and excellent wine tasting in nearby vineyards.

Keeping it local
We’ve teamed up with locals in each of our ports to reveal sides of places you’ve yet to explore — from the people who know the destinations best.
The places you'll go
Piraeus (Athens)
Bright blue skies, sand-fringed shores, and a bustling street art scene — few places are as colorful as this ever-evolving city.
Mykonos
Known for its hip beach clubs and electric nightlife, this famous Greek Isle has a notably quiet side, too — and it's truly spectacular.
Catania, Sicily
Mount Etna in the morning. Architecture in the afternoon. Just a day in this city and its electric energy will have you yearning to return... as soon as possible.
Civitavecchia (Rome)
The seaside entryway for those headed into Rome for over 2,000 years. Its ancient ruins, baths, and museum offer your first taste of Roman culture.
La Spezia
On the border of Liguria and Tuscany, La Spezia allows for blissful day trips into the countryside, including Cinque Terre.
Ajaccio, Corsica
Filled with slopes and centuries worth of history, Ajaccio also boasts art (crafted both by nature or in the baroque period).
Cannes
An iconic and stunning resort destination in the French Riviera, Cannes' unparalleled natural beauty rivals the A-list celebrities who vacation here.
Barcelona
More than just a late-night party town, the capital of Catalonia is full of tranquil, museum-lined mornings and afternoons sipping cava with gorgeous views of the Med.
