Aboard Sirena with Oceania Cruises
Cruise Overview
The infinite variety of street life, the nooks and crannies of the medieval Barri Gòtic, the ceramic tile and stained glass of Art Nouveau facades, the art and music, the throb of street life, the food (ah, the food!)—one way or another, Barcelona will find a way to get your full attention.
The capital of Catalonia is a banquet for the senses, with its beguiling mix of ancient and modern architecture, tempting cafés and markets, and sun-drenched Mediterranean beaches.
A stroll along La Rambla and through waterfront Barceloneta, as well as a tour of Gaudí's majestic Sagrada Famíliaand his other unique creations, are part of a visit to Spain's second-largest city.
Modern art museums and chic shops call for attention, too.
Barcelona's vibe stays lively well into the night, when you can linger over regional wine and cuisine at buzzing tapas bars.
The capital of Menorca since 1721, Mahon has a impressive natural deep water harbour, which is one of the largest in the world.
This, coupled with its strategic location, has made it a stronghold for many nations throughout history.
Mahon has an abundance of historical buildings, the oldest being the Arch of Saint Roc which is all that remains of the wall that once encircled the whole town.
The island was occupied by the British during the 18th century and Lord Nelson is thought to have stayed there.
Indeed, San Antoni Mansion, located on the north side of the harbour, houses a collection of Nelson memorabilia.
The legacy of colonial rule can be seen in the muted Georgian style of some of the buildings, but Mahon still boasts attractive examples of neo-Classical, Baroque and Romanesque architecture.
With narrow streets to explore, pleasant shaded squares and welcoming pavement cafés, there is something for everyone to enjoy.
Please be aware that most shops in town close for a siesta between 1330 and 1730.
The fishing village of Sète serves as gateway to Montpellier, in the North.
Other noteworthy destinations in this area include Carcassone, Aigues Mortes, the Abbaye de Fontfroide, and Pezenas.
For a look at the real fisherman's life, however, stay right where you are.
Sète is the Mediterranean's biggest fishing port.
Canals winding through town make it fun to stroll around, and there are a number of good walking paths leading to the beach (about 30 minutes to the west).
Although it's small and unspectacular, Plage de la Corniche has calm, pristine waters that are perfect for swimming.
For a panoramic view of the area, climb Mont St-Clair or Les Pierres Blanches and pick a beach to settle down on.
