Marella Cruises are delighted to share there brand new promotion where you can save up to £300 per booking. Sailings from 1st October 2026 until 31st December 2027 can save £300 when visiting the picturesque Caribbean and if you fancy the charm of the Canary Islands, or the wonderful Mediterranean. You can still save £200 on European sailings too!
Caribbean cruises excel in weak-at-the-knees scenery. The region’s 7,000 islands sweep across the Caribbean Sea, all the way from the Florida Keys to Venezuela. Flawless white beaches are something they all have in common. Whether you drop anchor in Aruba, St Lucia or Guadeloupe, you’ll be greeted with icing sugar sands lapped by sparkling blue waves.
With this comes a world-class diving scene. You can nose around an ancient shipwreck off Grand Turk’s shores, come face-to-face with turtles in Barbados, or swim with stingrays in the Cayman Islands. The swimming pigs of the Bahamas deserve a mention, too. And cruise holidays to Dominica are perfect for snapping sperm whales – it’s the only place in the world where they live all-year-round.
Venture away from the water and you’ll find each has its own unique flavour, too. The Dutch Island of Curacao looks like it belongs in a colouring book, while Jamaica is the spot for rum cocktails and reggae. Over in Cuba’s Havana, expect crumbling colonial buildings, late-night salsa bars, and vintage Cadillacs on every corner. Meanwhile, under-the-radar St Maarten’s 400-odd restaurants have earned it a reputation as a culinary capital.
Black-sand beaches and lunar-like volcanic landscapes are just two of the things that make a cruise around the Canary Islands so popular. This scattering of islands in the Atlantic Ocean has become a popular pick for party-goers and families alike. They’re packed with history – in Gran Canaria you can walk the cobbled streets of Las Palmas. And on the second smallest island, La Gomera, you can visit the house where Christopher Columbus lived. If you fancy an underwater adventure, you can try our submarine trip off the coast of Lanzarote. Or for the best views, climb Tenerife’s most-famous landmark, Mount Teide. A lot of their Canary Islands cruises drop anchor at Madeira, as well.
Marella cruises to the Western Mediterranean include the crème de la crème of cosmopolitan Europe, covering countries like France, Portugal and Spain. You can call in at a league of extraordinary cities, from Marseille to Malaga and Lisbon to Livorno. The shore excursions on their Mediterranean cruises blend history with hands-on activities – one day you might wander the ruins of Pompeii in the shadow of Mount Vesuvius, and on another you could be cycling through the pretty streets of Barcelona. There’s also a chance to dial things down a notch on a European cruise. You can go slow along the French Riviera or on castaway islands like Corsica and Sardinia. Plus, they stop off at some of Europe’s less high profile cities – you can visit the Baroque cathedral in Valletta, go off-roading in Portimao or walk the ancient cobbled streets of Cadiz.
What about the Eastern Mediterranean? Whether you want to stand on top of the Acropolis in Athens or explore the ancient gateways of Dubrovnik's old town, your perfect itinerary is ready and waiting. Cities like Malta’s Valetta and the landmark-packed Italian capital, Rome, are staples on a European cruise. And if a combination of time-stamped sites and sapphire-blue seas is on your holiday wishlist, make a beeline for Corfu Town, where you’ll find gigantic fortresses and postcard-worthy beaches.
