Celestyal is expanding into the Western Mediterranean for the first time, unveiling a new programme featuring a 14-night Spain, Portugal and Morocco itinerary.
The new departure, onboard the 1,360-guest Celestyal Discovery, includes 14 maiden calls.
The flagship ‘Mediterranean Odyssey: Spain, Portugal & Morocco’ sailing features overnight stays in Barcelona, Spain and Lisbon, Portugal.
It also calls at Malaga, Cadiz, Valencia and Palma de Mallorca in Spain, Casablanca and Tangier in Morocco, Sète, France and Gibraltar. Prices start from £949pp for the 14-night sailing.
The itinerary will also be available as two seven-night sections from Barcelona (Tarragona) to Lisbon, or the reverse trip, priced from £569pp.
The programme is supported by two eight-night ‘Mediterranean Riviera’ repositioning cruises between Athens, Greece and Barcelona, with calls including Kusadasi, Turkey, Messina, Naples and Civitavecchia, Italy, Nice, France and an overnight in Barcelona. Fares start from £649pp.
Agents can package sailings to create longer itineraries, including a 22-night combination with the ‘Mediterranean Odyssey’ or a 26-night option when paired with a four-night ‘Iconic Greek Islands’ cruise.
All fares include meals, soft drinks, wifi, port fees and gratuities.
Celestyal Discovery will operate two ‘Mediterranean Odyssey’ departures in winter 2026/27, followed by six sailings in winter 2027/28.
The move west follows the line’s decision to cancel its Arabian Gulf programme for winter 2026/27 and extend its Eastern Mediterranean season.
Celestyal Chief Commercial Officer Lee Haslett said: “For more than a decade, we’ve become known for delivering authentic and immersive experiences across the Greek Islands and Eastern Mediterranean. The time is now right for us to expand west and bring that same philosophy to a new collection of destinations.
“Rather than simply visiting the headline ports, we’ve carefully designed these itineraries to showcase the true character of the Western Mediterranean. Alongside the overnight stays in Barcelona and Lisbon we’ve included hidden gems such as Sète and extended time ashore, allowing guests to connect even more with the destinations they visit.”
