A cruise in the eastern part of the Mediterranean Sea will take you to ancient lands, once home to cultured civilisations, the birthplace of democracy, and the holy city of Jerusalem. Explore great amphitheatres, temples to long-forgotten gods made from marble, olive groves and vineyards, ancient fortresses, and some of the most revered treasures of antiquity.
The eastern Med and, in particular, the Aegean Sea are renowned for their excellent and unique sailing conditions and, when combined with stunning destinations filled with historic treasures, charming villages, and beautiful bays, the area makes for an excellent sailing adventure or yacht cruise. However, which ever type of ship you're sailing with, an eastern Med cruise offers alluring ports of call, oozing with history, culture, great food, and breath-taking views, blessed with sunny, warm weather, and glittering azure seas.
Itineraries can be simply contained with the eastern Mediterranean and the Aegean Sea, although you may also find that the area often combines with the Adriatic, or there are cruises available spanning across the whole of the Mediterranean, between the east and west.
