Where Italy Cruises Take You

Explore some of Italy's most iconic and picturesque destinations by sea.

Amalfi

With its dramatic cliffs, Amalfi is one of Italy's most scenic coastal towns. Wander through narrow streets, admire the striking cathedral, and explore nearby gems like Positano and Ravello. This UNESCO-listed area is also known for its lemon groves and traditional craft shops.

Discover Italy by Sea

Sailing Along Italy's Coast – From Cliffs to Islands

Italy's coast offers one of the most diverse cruising experiences in the Mediterranean. Sail past the towering cliffs of Amalfi and Sorrento, discover the untouched beauty of Sardinia, and explore the volcanic Aeolian Islands, like Lipari and Stromboli. On a cruise from ports such as Civitavecchia or Nice, you can explore Roman ruins, UNESCO World Heritage towns, and secluded bays. Our itineraries often include both iconic places, such as Portofino or Capri, and lesser-known gems, like Ponza or Porto Ercole. Cruises typically last 7 to 10 days and let you enjoy a wide variety of landscapes, culture, and local life—all without the stress of packing and unpacking.

A Better Way to Cruise Italy

Forget the crowds of large ships. Our Italy cruises feature smaller, more elegant vessels such as Star Clipper, Wind Spirit, Le Boreal, and Emerald Sakkara. These ships carry fewer guests, offering more space, personalized service, and a relaxed onboard atmosphere. Many itineraries include ports too small for larger ships—places where local life still flows at its own pace. On board, expect refined comfort, ocean-view cabins, and easy access to quiet coves. Whether under sail or motor, these ships offer a front-row seat to Italy's most beautiful coastlines.

Getting On Board: Italy's Cruise Ports

Italy cruises typically start and end at well-connected ports, such as Civitavecchia (near Rome), Nice, or Valletta in Malta. Civitavecchia is just over an hour from Rome's international airport, offering easy access to the Eternal City's timeless attractions. Nice combines French flair with Mediterranean charm, while Valletta adds a unique island dimension to your itinerary. All three ports are excellent choices to begin or end your journey—with options to extend your stay before or after the cruise.

Start Your Italy Cruise Adventure

Italy's coast is full of character: historic towns, scenic islands, and unforgettable coastal views. Travel in comfort on a small ship and enjoy every stop along the way. Explore our itineraries and find the Italy cruise that fits your travel style.
