The Western Mediterranean is where the beaches of the rivieras are located; these islands are popular with tourists who love to visit the resorts and cosmopolitan cities. Ports on the Spanish coast include Barcelona, Valencia, Malaga (for Granada) and Western Mediterranean Cruises will be stopping off here. Majorca and the Balearics are popular ports of call and both Corsica and Sardinia have lots to offer. The French Riviera can be explored when on a Western Mediterranean Cruise from Nice or Monte Carlo and the Italian west coast offers Livorno (for Florence), Civitavecchia (for Rome) and Naples.
