Rome's ancient maritime gateway since the Emperor Trajan commissioned its harbour in 106 AD, Civitavecchia is the natural prologue to the Eternal City — just seventy minutes southeast by express rail. The port's Renaissance fortress, designed in part by Michelangelo, anchors a working waterfront that has welcomed travellers for millennia. Beyond Rome's unmissable monuments, consider an afternoon in the Civitavecchia thermal baths, drawing on mineral waters prized since antiquity. Spring and autumn offer the ideal balance of mild weather and manageable crowds for exploring the capital's layered history.

Salerno is a historic Campanian port city nestled between the Amalfi Coast and Cilento National Park, home to Europe's first medieval medical school and a magnificent Romanesque cathedral with Byzantine bronze doors. Visitors should not miss the Lungomare Trieste promenade at sunset and a plate of hand-rolled scialatielli ai frutti di mare in the atmospheric old town. The mild Mediterranean climate makes Salerno enchanting year-round, though late spring through early autumn offers the most luminous light and the fullest expression of its coastal character.

Messina guards the storied strait that separates Sicily from the Italian mainland — the passage Homer mythologised as Scylla and Charybdis — and its Norman cathedral's astronomical clock, one of the world's largest mechanical clocks, puts on a captivating automated display each noon as gilded figures enact scenes of the Resurrection. The city was catastrophically rebuilt after the 1908 earthquake, but its markets and waterfront convey the fierce energy of a Sicilian port that has witnessed two and a half millennia of Mediterranean history. Messina is the perfect gateway to Taormina, a 40-minute drive into the hills above the Ionian coast, with views of Etna at their most dramatic. Spring and autumn are ideal.

Taranto, founded by Spartans in 706 BC, is Puglia's ancient maritime city straddling two seas, home to Italy's finest mussels and an extraordinary collection of Hellenistic gold jewellery at the MArTA museum. Visitors should explore the atmospheric island old town, taste cozze taratine with Primitivo di Manduria wine, and witness a city in cultural renaissance. May through October offers ideal Mediterranean conditions.

Bari, Puglia's ancient capital on the Adriatic, has served as a bridge between Western Europe and the Eastern Mediterranean for over two millennia — a heritage visible in the magnificent Basilica di San Nicola, one of medieval Christendom's most important pilgrimage churches, and in the labyrinthine Bari Vecchia where elderly women still hand-roll orecchiette in the street. The surrounding region of Puglia is among Italy's most compelling culinary destinations: burrata born in Andria, focaccia barese, and the puglian cuisine that has recently attracted international attention as Rome's and Florence's quieter, more authentic cousin. Visit April through June and September through October; the Trulli of Alberobello are forty minutes south.

The port of Kotor, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is renowned for its stunning natural beauty and rich historical tapestry. A must-do experience includes wandering the cobblestone streets of the Old Town, where culinary delights like "kacamak" and fresh seafood await. The best time to visit is during the spring or early fall, when the weather is pleasant and the crowds are fewer.

Split, Croatia's vibrant port city, is a unique blend of ancient history and modern life, centered around the remarkable Diocletian's Palace. Must-do experiences include savoring local dishes like pašticada and exploring the bustling markets. The best time to visit is during the spring and early fall, when the weather is pleasant and the tourist crowds are more manageable.

Trieste, a historic port city in Italy, is renowned for its rich cultural tapestry and stunning architectural heritage. Must-do experiences include sampling local delicacies like ćevapi and sachertorte, and exploring the vibrant Mercato Coperto. The best time to visit is during the spring and early autumn, when the weather is pleasant and the city is alive with activity.
