A Scottish tourist has been found dead in a pool on board a cruise ship docked in Naples.
Marella Cruises, who work with TUI, confirmed on Wednesday that a passenger on board the Marella Voyage had died from natural causes.
The ship was docked in the port of Naples when an 83-year-old man was found unresponsive in the pool, as reported by Italian news site Cronache della Campania.
The Marella Voyager left Majorca on August 16 before stops at Olbia in Sardinia, Naples, Rome, Ajaccio in Corsica, Palamos in Spain, and a return to Majorca.
A spokesperson for the company said: “We can confirm that sadly a passenger passed away of natural causes onboard Marella Voyager.
“Our thoughts are with the passenger’s family during this difficult time, and our care team is providing assistance.”
An FCDO Spokesperson said: “We are supporting the family of a British man who died in Italy.”
