About This Cruise
The 7 Night Hidden Gems Of Spain, Corsica & Sardinia is a 7-night one-way itinerary aboard Seabourn Ovation. You board in Barcelona and disembark in Istanbul, calling at 24 ports across 13 countries along the way.
In sequence the voyage takes in Spain (Barcelona, Roses), France (Sanary sur Mer), Corsica (Calvi), Sardinia (Olbia), Italy (Porto Santo Stefano, Civitavecchia, Salerno), Sicily (Giardini-Naxos) and 2 more, among others.
As a one-way sailing you'll fly into Barcelona and home from Istanbul, so it's worth checking the two gateways before you book. Longer hops are crossed on the 4 days at sea, keeping daylight hours for the ports. Sailing dates, cabin availability and fares vary by season — use Check Dates & Prices for live pricing, or call our team to talk through the options.
