Norwegian can be a good alternative when going on a diving holiday – especially to the more typical “destinations of the week” around the Mediterranean.

Among the company’s new destinations in the 2024 program are Bodrum in Turkey and Zadar in Croatia, both of which offer incredible diving.

Zadar is roughly in the middle of Croatia, and is a great starting point for a five-day liveaboard trip to the north or south of the country.

In the island kingdom off the coast of the city, you’ll find the Kornati marine national park, which lures divers with its crystal clear waters and colorful corals.

Bodrum is located in the southwestern tip of Turkey, not far from the “diving capital” Kaş. There are several dive centers in this city, and several shipwrecks that have been sunk as diving targets.

The most exciting is the wreck of the famous Douglas Dakota C-47 propeller plane, which lies at a depth of 5-25 meters about 15 minutes from the port.

Both destinations are suitable for family holidays, and you only need to provide an extra box for diving equipment when booking.

Additionally, Norway has some big city news in France, Spain and Italy scheduled for next year – see the overview in the links below.
