Join the Sea Cloud on a dazzling 8-day sailing adventure exploring the wonders of the Mediterranean. Start in Monte Carlo, where the densely packed buildings extend up the rocky coastline, and gaze out over a gloriously azure sea, with three marinas with spectacular luxury yachts swaying on the waves. In the center, set high up, is the beautiful old city of Monaco-Ville with the splendid Prince's Palace, cathedral, and Oceanographic Museum of Jacques Cousteau. Sail all the way to Barcelona's beautiful elegant squares and boulevards while others look for medieval romance in the Gothic quarter. Some love the artistic treasures in the Picasso Museum or the Joan Miró Foundation, but for most, Barcelona is the capital of Catalan Art Nouveau and its glory is epitomized in the spectacular Palau de la Música.

The sophisticated Monegasque city state between Italy and France is one of the world's most exclusive addresses. Its densely packed buildings extend up the rocky coastline and gaze out over a gloriously azure sea, with three marinas where spectacular luxury yachts sway on the waves. In the center, set high up, is the beautiful old city of Monaco-Ville with the splendid Prince's Palace, cathedral, and Oceanographic Museum of Jacques Cousteau. In the center of Monte Carlo you can find the famous casino, a beautiful Belle Epoque building, and the palatial opera house.
Discover La Ciotat, a town on France’s Mediterranean coast. Take a trip to the Parc du Mugel botanical garden where you will see tropical plants, pebble beaches, and play areas. Enjoy the great at atmosphere at the grand Musée Ciotaden, amid the cafes and bars of the regenerated Old Port area, which features exhibitions on the town’s shipbuilding history and the invention of the game of pétanque. To the north is the Eden Theater, the world's oldest operating cinema.
Explore the medieval Château Royal de Collioure offering dramatic coastal views. The bell tower of 17th-century Notre-Dame-des-Anges Church was once a lighthouse. The Modern Art Museum includes paintings by Henri Matisse. Nearby is the Moulin de Collioure, a 14th-century windmill. South, the hilltop Fort St. Elme has a museum with medieval weapons.
Barcelona revels in contrasts. Many enthuse over the beautiful elegant squares and boulevards, while others look for medieval romance in the Gothic quarter. Some love the artistic treasures in the Picasso Museum or the Joan Miró Foundation, but for most people, Barcelona is the capital of Catalan Art Nouveau and its glory is epitomized in the spectacular Palau de la Música. At every turn, you encounter the playfully opulent creations of architect Antonio Gaudi. His exuberant fantasies are evident in the numerous houses, idiosyncratic parks, and the famous uncompleted Sagrada Familia cathedral which he created.
Walk through Mahón, or Maó, the magnificent capital of the Spanish island of Menorca. Marvel at the British-style Georgian houses and sheltered harbor. The Santa María Church, which has an ornate 19th-century organ, sits on central Plaça de la Constitució. The city hall next to the church has a Renaissance facade and a clock donated by the island’s first British governor. The Menorca Museum displays art and exhibits on the island's history.

1 Breakfast
Enjoy exploring the resort city and capital of the Spanish island of Mallorca (Majorca), in the western Mediterranean.
