The young, vibrant university city of Bari is situated in the south of Italy. With its pleasant city beach, gorgeous palaces and the final resting place of Saint Nicholas, this city is certainly worth a visit.
Cruise destination Bari
One of Bari's most striking sights is the 12th-century St Nicholas Basilica. The impressive white church was built as the final resting place for Saint Nicholas of Myra. But Bari has more to offer, of course. Visit the medieval Castello Svevo or stroll down the promenade and watch the fishermen land their catch.
Of course, fresh fish features prominently on the menu in the port city of Bari. But the city's many restaurants and trattoria will please fans of special pasta varieties just as well. In addition, the city is known for its magnificent burrata, a type of mozzarella filled with cream. Follow up your lavish lunch with some sunbathing at one of the golden city beaches of Bari. With its dynamic character and diversity of activities, Bari is a surprising destination for your cruise holiday in the Mediterranean Sea.
