Costa Cruises presents its new cruises departing from December 2024 to March 2025 in the Mediterranean, the Caribbean, and the United Arab Emirates. In addition, the new edition of the World Cruise will depart in December 2024.
The flagship Costa Toscana will set sail on week-long cruises to explore Italy, France, Spain, the Balearic Islands, and Sicily, stopping at four destinations for more than 10 hours to make the most of the shore experiences. The itinerary includes Savona, Marseille, Barcelona, Palma de Mallorca, Palermo, and Civitavecchia/Rome.
Costa Fortuna and Costa Fascinosa will each offer two different one-week Caribbean itineraries that can be combined into a single two-week vacation. The proposed package is a "flight + cruise" tour. Costa Fortuna will sail exclusively among the Lesser Antilles. The first itinerary includes Guadeloupe, Tortola, St. Maarten, Antigua, St. Lucia, and Martinique; the second, Guadeloupe, Trinidad and Tobago, Grenada, St. Vincent, Barbados, and Martinique. All port calls have a minimum duration of 10 hours, allowing ample time to enjoy these beautiful islands, snorkeling, discovering local traditions, or savoring Caribbean delicacies.
On the other hand, the Costa Fascinosa's first itinerary is a total immersion in the Dominican Republic, with extended stops amidst mangrove forests, coffee plantations, and a full day on Catalina Island, Costa's exclusive island. Stops include La Romana (Dominican Republic), Ocho Rios (Jamaica), Grand Turk, Amber Cove (Dominican Republic), Samaná (Dominican Republic), and Catalina Island (Dominican Republic).
The ship's second itinerary explores six of the most beautiful islands in the Caribbean, stopping in La Romana (Dominican Republic), St. Lucia, Barbados, Guadeloupe, Antigua and the British Virgin Islands, to explore beaches, caves, botanical gardens or swim among stingrays.
Another destination for a warm winter is the United Arab Emirates, where the Costa Smeralda will be deployed. The week-long cruises will visit Dubai (UAE), with a two-day stopover, Muscat (Oman), Doha (Qatar), and Abu Dhabi (UAE), allowing guests to experience the ancient traditions, natural beauty, and futuristic cities of this region.
The 2025 edition of the World Cruise, aboard the Costa Deliziosa, will circumnavigate the globe primarily in the Southern Hemisphere, visiting Tierra del Fuego, Polynesia, New Zealand, Australia, and South Africa. For the first time, the departure will be on December 7, 2024, allowing guests to enjoy the Christmas holidays on a cruise. New Year's Eve in Rio de Janeiro will be an unforgettable experience, featuring a spectacular fireworks display from Copacabana Beach.
