Revel in the Beauty of Nature

With a history reaching back to 295 A.D. and a breathtaking skyline where the mountains kiss the Adriatic sea, Split (Croatia) is the perfect destination to experience some of nature's most incredible sights. Split sits right on the Adriatic Sea, and its many harbors and coastline hubs offer chances to grab a bite to eat or just relax and breathe in the fresh sea air. As you look up, you'll view impressive mountains towering over the city, covered with forests and hidden waterfalls.

For some of the best seafood you'll ever taste, visit the restaurants or cafes in Split. Smoked ham and local cheese also await you in this coastal town.

A vision of crystal blue waters and soft, sandy beaches, the port of Corfu, Greece, is a favorite among Norwegian cruisers. In this idyllic island town, you'll have tranquil views of greenery and mountains, peppered along the coast with beaches where you can suntan, swim, and pursue other watersports. You'll rarely feel closer to nature than while you're exploring one of Corfu's tucked-away coves, brimming with plants and wildlife that you certainly won't see back home.

Feast on Delectable Local Cuisine

Once awarded the title of the European Capital of Street Food, Messina (Sicily), Italy, is the ideal port of call for foodies cruising the Mediterranean. Packed with restaurants and cafes, this city offers countless chances to enjoy a gourmet meal or grab a quick bite on the go from a local street vendor. You might also try the local Marsala wine and unwind while you reminisce on your travels.

Apart from its iconic canals and expansive St. Mark's Square, the port of Venice (Trieste), Italy, is the perfect place to sample Italian cuisine and desserts. Discover authentic pizza shops, picturesque cafes, and colorful markets where you'll find local favorite street food. Don't forget to stop by one of the city's gelato windows for a scoop of delicious ice cream.
