Itinerary
Day 1
Day 1
Las Palmas de Gran Canaria
Depart 18:00
Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, a historic port city founded in 1478, offers a rich tapestry of culture, architecture, and culinary delights. Must-do experiences include sampling **papas arrugadas** at the Mercado de Vegueta and exploring the charming streets of Vegueta. The best time to visit is during the mild spring months when the weather is ideal for outdoor exploration.
Day 2
Day 2
Puerto de la Estaca
Arrive 12:00Depart 21:30
El Hierro is the Canary Islands' smallest and westernmost island—once the world's prime meridian and now the first island powered entirely by renewable energy—with dramatic volcanic landscapes and exceptional diving in the clear Atlantic waters. Must-dos include diving the Mar de las Calmas, standing at the Golfo Valley viewpoint overlooking the ancient landslide amphitheater, and visiting the renewable energy installation. The mild Canarian climate offers pleasant conditions year-round.
Day 3
Day 3
Los Cristianos
Arrive 07:00Depart 21:30
Los Cristianos is a resort town on Tenerife's sunny southern coast, serving as a gateway to Mount Teide — Spain's highest peak — and some of Europe's best whale watching with resident pilot whales and dolphins. Must-dos include a cable car ride up Teide, a whale-watching excursion, and tasting papas arrugadas with mojo sauces. The southern coast enjoys over three hundred sunny days annually, making it a compelling year-round destination.
Day 4
Day 4
Santa Cruz de Tenerife
Arrive 07:00Depart 19:00
Santa Cruz de Tenerife, the cosmopolitan capital of the Canary Islands, balances volcanic grandeur with refined urban pleasures — from the Santiago Calatrava–designed Auditorio rising beside the Atlantic to the ancient dragon tree at Icod de los Vinos and the World Heritage Teide volcano looming above the island. The city's Carnival, second in scale only to Rio de Janeiro's, erupts each February in spectacular costumes and street revelry. Local wines from the volcanic slopes, wrinkled potatoes with mojo verde, and fresh Atlantic fish define the island's culinary character. November through April offers reliably warm, sun-drenched conditions.
Day 5
Day 5
Santa Cruz de la Palma
Arrive 07:00Depart 16:00
Santa Cruz de la Palma is the charming capital of La Palma, known for its colonial architecture and rich maritime history. Must-do experiences include savoring local dishes like "papas arrugadas" and exploring the stunning landscapes of Taburiente National Park. The best time to visit is during the spring and fall months when the weather is mild and perfect for outdoor adventures.
Day 6
Day 6
Funchal
Arrive 13:00Depart 23:59
Funchal — Madeira's radiant capital, its name derived from the wild fennel that greeted Portuguese settlers in 1419 — cascades down volcanic hillsides to a deep-water harbour that has welcomed mariners and wanderers for six centuries. The Reid's Palace, opened in 1891, remains one of the Atlantic's most legendary hotels, its clifftop terraces commanding views that inspired Churchill, Shaw, and a century of distinguished guests. The city's floating flower market, levada walks through ancient laurisilva forest, and the exhilarating toboggan descent from Monte combine for days of effortless discovery. The subtropical climate makes Funchal appealing year-round, with spring particularly spectacular for wildflowers.
Day 8
Day 8
At Sea
Day 9
Day 9
Safi
Arrive 05:00Depart 18:30
Safi is Morocco's pottery capital and largest sardine port, where Portuguese fortresses overlook a working medina and centuries-old ceramic workshops continue their craft on the Potters' Hill. Visitors should watch master potters at work, explore the Kechla fortress and seaside Dar el Bahar castle, and feast on freshly grilled sardines by the Atlantic. Spring and autumn offer the most comfortable temperatures for exploring this authentic, untouristed Moroccan coastal city.
Day 10
Day 10
Casablanca
Arrive 07:00
Casablanca is Morocco's largest city, a striking fusion of Berber heritage, French colonial art deco architecture, and contemporary ambition anchored by the towering Hassan II Mosque on the Atlantic shore. Visitors should not miss the Central Market's freshly grilled seafood and a half-day excursion to the imperial capital Rabat or the UNESCO-listed fortress of Aït Ben Haddou. The optimal season for cruising into Casablanca is April through June or September through November, when temperatures hover between twenty and twenty-seven degrees and the Atlantic light renders the white city at its most luminous.
