Take a Mediterranean Cruise to Salerno, Italy from Destination Oceans!

Discover the Italian port of Salerno on the Amalfi Coast on a Greek Isles Cruise or Mediterranean Cruise from Destination Oceans. Salerno is a town in Campania, south-western Italy, the capital of the province of the same name. It is located on the gulf of the same name on the Tyrrhenian Sea. It is mostly known in recent history for having hosted the king of Italy, who escaped from Rome in 1943 after Italy negotiated a peace with the Allies in World War II. A brief so-called "government of the South" was then established in the town. Some of the Allied landings during Operation Avalanche (the invasion of Italy) occurred near Salerno.

The renewal of the historical centre has been directed towards the rediscovery of the artistic and cultural treasures of an exceptional region. Salerno appears as a welcoming community for tourists from all over the world with its historical centre, where it is possible to admire both the traces of its ancient history and the fervor of artisan shops and places for cultural and musical aggregation attended by thousands of people. Making it perfect for a Greek Isles Cruise or stop.
