Welcome to Day 5 of our Mediterranean cruise on MSC Fantasia! Today, our ship docked at the Port of Palermo, Sicily, but we decided to stay onboard and enjoy everything the MSC Fantasia cruise ship has to offer.
While many passengers explored Palermo shore excursions, we made the most of a quiet ship day. We relaxed in the exclusive Top Sail Lounge, took a dip in the covered indoor pool, did some shopping (yes, we picked up LEGO at the onboard store!), and even checked out the fun Officers on the Move event that evening.
If you’re wondering what it’s like to skip a port and stay onboard during a cruise, this vlog shows you exactly what kind of relaxing and fun experiences are available!
