Day 1 - Málaga, Spain

Welcome to Málaga, the cultural heart of Spain’s famous Costa del Sol and a 3,000-year-old city where millions of visitors flock to the region for its namesake sunshine, rich history, and artistic soul. Uncover culinary delights such as ‘Tinto de Verano’, a refreshing iced summer wine, and wander streets filled with architectural marvels.

This afternoon, you’ll board Scenic Eclipse for your voyage from coastal Spain to the chic harbours of the French Riviera. You will be shown to your spacious suite, where you can enjoy a drink on your private verandah and toast the start of this luxurious voyage.

Please book your flight to arrive into Malaga prior to 02:00 PM.

Day 2 - Motril (Granada), Spain

Perched gracefully on a hillside at the foothills of the Sierra de Lújar, Motril is the elegant capital of the Tropical Coast. Its historic Arab-Spanish quarter and Baroque City Hall reflect a rich cultural heritage, while the pristine beaches of La Joya, Poniente, and Carchuna, along with its vibrant port, add to the town’s coastal charm. Motril also serves as a gateway to Granada, offering convenient access to the Alhambra and the city’s historic streets, making it an inviting introduction to Andalusia’s history, culture, and Mediterranean allure.

This evening, indulge in world-class culinary experiences on board your Scenic Discovery Yacht, with every detail thoughtfully prepared and every meal a moment to savour.

Day 3 - Cartagena, Spain

Blessed with one of the world’s greatest natural harbours and surrounded by rich mineral deposits, Cartagena will surprise and delight. Once inhabited by the Romans, Cartagena is recognised for the wealth of ancient sites in and around the city. Step back in time as you explore Cartagena’s magnificent Roman Theatre, one of Spain’s most impressive archaeological restorations. Follow in the footsteps of Roman citizens along the Decumano Máximo, a remarkably preserved street that once formed the city’s bustling main artery. Roman murals and mosaics adorn historical villas while late 19th-century architecture complements the picturesque Mediterranean coast.

Day 4 - Ibiza, Spain

Whilst Ibiza is famed for its thriving party scene, there’s far more to this island than meets the eye. Beyond the buzz, you’ll find pristine beaches, lush nature reserves, ancient archaeological sites, and small villages seemingly untouched by time. Inland, limestone hills and lush pine forests shelter artisan producers crafting one-of-a-kind local delights.

As the day softly fades into night, Ibiza invites you to experience its renowned charm longer. With a late departure, sip a cocktail at a waterfront bar and watch the sky turn a blaze of orange and red.

Day 5 - Palma de Mallorca, Spain

Palma, a popular resort city and capital of the Spanish island of Mallorca, is where history comes alive. Shaped by Romans, Moors and Catholics since 123 BC, the city’s rich heritage unfolds across centuries. Wander the narrow, cobbled lanes of Palma’s Casco Antiguo (Old Town), where elegant archways, grand historic palacios, medieval churches and picturesque plazas transport you to another time. From the soaring Santa Maria Cathedral to La Almudaina, a Moorish-style Arab fortress converted into a royal residence, and the unique circular Bellver Castle, Palma reveals a new layer of history at every corner.

Day 6 - At Sea

Take a moment to yourself this morning and soak in the comforts of your luxuriously appointed suite, your very own 6-star floating sanctuary. Ask your butler to deliver breakfast to your suite, where you can enjoy it on the verandah as the deep blue waters of the sea slip by outside.

Visit the Sky Bar and outdoor Vitality pool on Deck 10. Step into the tranquil Senses Spa# on Deck 6 with its steam rooms, saunas, plunge pool and Vitality Thermal Lounge. Stop for a coffee or a cocktail at one of the nine bars and lounges on board, or curl up with a book in the library of the Observation Lounge.

Every day on board Scenic Eclipse a true culinary journey awaits, with up to 10 all-inclusive culinary experiences. You may decide to return to the Yacht Club for lunch, or opt for Azure Bar & Café, where you can graze throughout the day.

As dusk falls, the hardest decision you have to make is in which direction to wander. Elements is the main dining experience, where the menu ranges from Italian to steak and seafood. Channel the spirit of Asia at Koko’s Asian Fusion, which also comes with a sushi bar and private Night Market+ experience. Journey to France at Lumière+, complete with a Champagne bar, or dine in the privacy of your suite, choosing from a comprehensive 24-hour menu.

With a guest-to-crew ratio of close to one-to-one, you will enjoy the most attentive service at sea, regardless of where you decide to dine.

Day 7 - Sanary-sur-Mer, Franc

The small town of Sanary-sur-Mer on the French Riviera began life as a fishing village and the marina is still filled with hundreds of brightly coloured wooden boats. You’ll quickly be charmed by this picturesque Provençal village, with its pretty palm-lined harbour, quiet pedestrian streets and pastel-hued buildings. They are all clustered around a 13th-century watchtower, which you can climb for sweeping views of the town. Along the harbour, you’ll see fishermen pulling in the day’s catch, which is then served up at the open-air restaurants looking out over the bobbing boats.

Day 8 - Fréjus, France

Shaped by centuries of history, Fréjus rewards exploration with an overnight stay that allows ample time to discover its treasures. Its cathedral, a protected historic monument, stands among colourful houses and charming fountains, while cobbled streets reveal the town’s heritage. Along the French Riviera, sandy beaches invite leisurely strolls, offering a refined blend of seaside relaxation and cultural discovery in this welcoming Mediterranean town.

This evening, perhaps unwind in Elements on Deck 4, where an à la carte menu of Italian favourites, premium steaks, and fresh seafood is served in a relaxed dinner setting.

Day 9 - Cannes, France

Welcome to Cannes, the world’s cinematic capital where glamour meets the sea. Stroll along the iconic La Croisette, shop haute couture boutiques, or unwind on sun-drenched beaches. Take in breathtaking views from castle ruins, marvel at luxury yachts, and sip cocktails at chic beach bars. While there’s plenty of history and culture to be found in this coastal enclave, Cannes is truly a place to relax and soak up the champagne lifestyle that plays out alongside the sparkling Mediterranean every day.

Indulge tonight in refined French cuisine at Lumière+, where elegance meets exceptional culinary artistry. Savour exquisite dishes paired with fine wines in a sophisticated atmosphere, a perfect way to end your day.

Day 10 - Antibes, France > Nice, France

Wake up in Antibes, an ancient Greek and Roman town that has long inspired writers and artists. With only small ships able to dock, Scenic Eclipse will be one of the few vessels in port, gliding past traditional wooden fishing boats. Explore the charming old town, a maze of cobbled streets overlooking the sea. Picasso lived here for years, and the 16th-century Château Grimaldi now houses a museum dedicated to his work.

In the afternoon, your Scenic Discovery Yacht will relocate to Nice for an overnight stay. This jewel of the French Riviera offers an elegant seaside promenade, Belle Époque charm, lively markets, and the winding lanes of Vieux Nice — perfect for enjoying a drink or dinner in this vibrant coastal city.

Day 11 - Nice, France

As your journey draws to a close, bid farewell in the picturesque city of Nice, a renowned gem of the Côte d’Azur. After savouring a final delightful breakfast on board Scenic Eclipse, it will be time to disembark and commence your onward journey or return home, carrying cherished memories with you.

Please book your flight to depart out of Nice after 12:00 PM.
