Cruises to La Spezia in 2026 & 2027

La Spezia is a port city in Liguria, Italy, set near the Gulf of Poets and often used as a gateway to the Cinque Terre, Pisa and Florence. The city itself has a waterfront, a naval museum, shops and local restaurants, making it possible to stay nearby for a simpler day ashore. Many cruise passengers take excursions to the coast, where villages such as Monterosso, Vernazza and Riomaggiore sit between sea and steep hillsides. La Spezia is a useful call for travellers who want Italian coastal scenery, regional food and access to some of northern Italy’s best-known places.
