12 Night Cruise from Las Palmas de Gran Canaria

About this cruise

Clear the calendar from November 10, 2026. This one's 12 nights from Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, and the route visits Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Mindelo, Maceio, Salvador and Rio de Janeiro. By the time you're a week in, you'll have completely stopped checking your phone. Last stop: Rio de Janeiro. The sea days add up to 7, but that's when you find the spa, catch the shows, or just read by the pool. The South America route takes in Spain, Cape Verde and Brazil, 3 countries, and the differences show up in the food, the architecture, and the mood. Port time is tight at about 8 hours each. Pick your favourites and save the rest for another trip. When you're not ashore, Costa Diadema holds 3,724 guests across 14 decks. It's a big ship, with plenty to keep you busy. One of the underrated parts of a longer cruise: you actually get to know people. The couple from dinner, the group at trivia, the bartender who remembers your drink. If you like having options (restaurants, bars, activities, entertainment), a big ship delivers that. A November sailing dodges the peak crowds while the weather is still cooperating. Well timed. Good route, good ship, good timing. It all lines up.
