23 nights - Time Out on the Atlantic and Caribbean - from Palma/to La Romana

About this cruise

If you've got 23 nights to work with, this sailing from Palma de Mallorca on October 26, 2026 through Gibraltar, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria and Mindelo, with additional stops along the Caribbean is genuinely one of the better ways to spend them. You wind up in La Romana, so it's worth planning a night or two there. A few ports come in quick succession, which is great for sightseeing but means you'll appreciate the sea days when they arrive. The route threads through 9 countries along the Caribbean coast: United Kingdom, Spain, Cape Verde, Dominica, St. Kitts & Nevis, Sint Maarten, Dominican Republic, British Virgin Islands and Antigua & Barbuda. St. John's stands out. It's Antigua's harbour of three hundred sixty-five beaches. Around 12 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. Mein Schiff 5 has 11 restaurants on board, which means you could eat somewhere different nearly every night. The longer time on board means you'll catch several shows, themed nights, and start feeling like a regular at your favourite bar. Palma de Mallorca itself is worth spending some time in. Don't just treat it as a departure point. The autumn timing is underrated too. Good weather, calmer seas, and a more relaxed ship. All in all, it's a solid trip.
