'Low cost' seafaring trips and getaways to disconnect before the summer

The spring aroma is already noticeable in the environment. The beaches, nature excursions and outdoor life begin to monopolize our thoughts. We have the world at our fingertips and, as you will see later, at really tempting prices.

Many of the offers that we highlight this week have to do precisely with the sea, rest and discovery. It is the season of promotions and many companies seek to captivate us with their discounts so that we can get going as soon as possible.

Cruises are always a great option to travel in spring and especially if the selected destination is the Greek islands. The itinerary of the ship that we present to you departs from Monfalcone, near Venice (with previous flights from Spain) and sails through the Adriatic towards the Greek islands -Cefalonia, Crete and Santorini-, to return again to Monfalcone.

Includes round-trip flights from Barcelona and Madrid to the port of Monfalcone, 7 nights in an inside cabin, full board and port taxes.

Where to book: MSC Cruises

Departures: May and June.

The Empordà and the Costa Brava are ideal for a spring getaway, so this offer at the Molí del Mig, an old 15th-century mill restored and turned into a charming accommodation, is an excellent opportunity to explore this northern area of Catalonia.

We must also highlight the excellent reviews on the net of this small establishment.

Includes one night in a double room with breakfast, a welcome glass of cava and free parking.
