The sail-away out of Port Everglades is actually very pretty! Especially, at night when many of the condos are flashing their lights.

Marmaris in Turkey has to be the prettiest port we have seen, only sailed on a sea cat and pleasure boat from the port but as most of Turkey it’s beautiful.
Below AIDAaura leaving Marmaris.

I really couldn't vote as we have had so many scenic sail-aways.
Right -- Rio was great.
Venice
Vancouver
Montreal
Several ports in the Baltic
Istanbul
And I could go on as each port had something different that made it special.
Sorry don't have any pictures as they are in albums -- no digital cameras in those days.

Cruising is a wonderful way to enjoy retirement!!
Stopped counting after 110 cruises.
We have sailed out of a number of ports that are very scenic.
I also do not have digital photos of most of them.
Seattle
New York
San Francisco

What was one of the most memorable sailaways for us was in 1993 leaving Hawaii. The captain took a detour so that we could watch Kilauea flowing into the sea at night. It is amazing that it is still flowing after all these years.

That would be hard to beat .
We've only embarked in three ports (LA, Miami and Seattle) and I would have to say Seattle has the most scenic view of those. We also went past Kilauea a few hours after leaving Hilo and everyone but everyone was up on deck (or looking from their balcony). You can actually see the lava fall into the ocean.
