Unless there are multiple ships in port.

Venice has a port calendar.  I think Bar Harbor does too.  You could look to see if Santorini has one.[/quote]

Cruise Mapper is the best site to see which ships are in port. They cover every port around the globe.

And I stand by my comment: smaller the ship, smaller the crowds. Note: you line up to get on and off the ship. And if it’s a tendered port, it’s a giant PITA to tender on a huge ship. Plus: you’ll deal with crowds on deck, at the theater, restaurants, etc. We love smaller ships—particularly in the Mediterranean.

When we cruised the Mediterranean last summer, we were often the only ship or one of just a few (alongside small luxury lines).

Since I lurk on cruise ship FB groups, I’ve determined cruising on a mega ship in Greece isn’t for me. The nightmares I’ve read about the crowds are eye opening. But there are smaller options. And there are itineraries that avoid Santorini and Mykonos—including some that go from Italy to Croatia and down to Corfu. [/quote]
