From Cagliari, ATYLA will sail south towards Tunisia, before heading west, cruising between the northern coast of Algeria and the islands of Mallorca and Ibiza, before reaching Cartagena. Open for all ages, minimum age 15 years.

Ports

The Port of Cagliari is one of the largest Italian seaports and a capital of Sardinia whose history dates back to ancient times. Take a walk around town to admire historical buildings, visit the botanical garden and an archeological museum, then relax on the beatiful Poetto beach.

Cartagena is a city in the southeast of Spain along the Mediterranean coast and one of the most important naval ports in Spain (also historically). It is the main military base and a home to a large naval shipyard. The Old Town is limited by five small hills: Molinete, Monte Sacro, Monte de San José, Despeñaperros and Monte de la Concepción, following the example of Rome. Enjoy the Spanish culture of food and beverages! Try some tasty tapas, local wine and fresh caught sea food.
