Star Clippers, the tall ship cruise line has announced seven NEW ports of call for the 2026 Mediterranean summer schedule. Ports include: Ouranoupolis in Greece and Barletta, Monopoli, Crotone and Pesaro in Italy.
Star Flyer will visit Ouranoupolis, a small Greek city in the Halkidiki region, following a day of sailing along the Athos peninsular and viewing the monasteries as a part of a 7-night Greek Islands sailing in June 2026. Pesaro will be a tender port, allowing multiple excursion opportunities including day trips to the Republic of San Marino – one of the smallest countries in the world – and the UNESCO-recognised town of Urbino. Star Flyer will be the only cruise ship to visit the ports of Ouranoupolis and Pesaro in the summer of 2026.
