Exclusive Destinations: Marina di Carrara and Palma de Mallorca
Marina di Carrara: A Hidden Gem
One of the more unique stops on the Virgin Mediterranean itinerary is Marina di Carrara in Italy. Known for its pristine white beaches and historic ties to marble quarrying, this destination offers travelers a rare glimpse into the artisanal craftsmanship that is still alive in the region. Shore excursions may include visits to the famous marble quarries or exploring local art galleries that showcase the marble’s use in exquisite sculptures.
Palma de Mallorca: Island Beauty
Further along the route lies Palma de Mallorca, a jewel in the Balearic Islands. Known for its stunning architecture, vibrant local culture, and beautiful Mediterranean landscapes, Palma offers a mix of historical exploration and modern luxury. Guests can wander through the ancient streets, visit the majestic Palma Cathedral, or relax on sun-soaked beaches. The nightlife here is lively, with numerous bars and clubs offering a taste of Spanish hospitality.
Unique Experiences: Beach Club and Shore Excursions

Diving Deeper into Onboard Luxuries
Culinary Delights at Sea
While Virgin Voyages is known for its sophisticated dining options, the Scarlet Lady takes gastronomy to new heights. Beyond the already mentioned specialty restaurants, the ship boasts an array of dining rooms, each offering a unique culinary experience. From gourmet steak and seafood offerings to lighter, health-conscious meals, the emphasis is on quality and flavor. Moreover, onboard sommeliers enhance your dining with wine pairings selected from a world-class cellar.
Unwinding in High Style
Relaxation on Virgin Voyages isn’t just an option—it’s a priority. The ship’s spa facilities extend beyond traditional treatments, incorporating wellness practices from around the world to rejuvenate both body and mind. Furthermore, the adults-only policy ensures that environments like the spa and multiple serene lounges maintain a peaceful atmosphere, perfect for unwinding after a day of exploration or sunbathing.
Immersive Cultural Encounters
A Closer Look at Local Life
While the ports of Marina di Carrara and Palma de Mallorca offer beautiful vistas and leisurely excursions, Virgin Voyages also provides opportunities for deeper cultural immersion. Guests can engage with local artisans, attend cooking classes to learn regional recipes, or participate in local traditions and festivals when timing aligns with the cruise schedule. These activities are thoughtfully curated to provide an authentic glimpse into the local way of life.
Art and History Enrichment
For those inclined towards art and history, Virgin Voyages curates special tours that explore the rich heritage of the Mediterranean. Visit ancient sites and landmark museums under the guidance of knowledgeable local experts. The Scarlet Lady itself offers onboard lectures and workshops that discuss the region’s history and cultural significance, preparing passengers for the rich narratives they’ll encounter ashore.
Stay Connected Effortlessly
Recognizing the modern traveler’s need to stay connected, Virgin Voyages equips all its ships, including the Scarlet Lady, with high-speed Wi-Fi.
