Canary Island Explorer – Funchal & Las Palmas

About this cruise

Long enough to properly switch off but not so long you need to reorganise your entire life. This 7-night round-trip sailing from Santa Cruz de Tenerife on February 14, 2027 visits Puerto del Rosario, Funchal, Arrecife, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria and Santa Cruz de la Palma. Expect a run of consecutive ports, 5 stops total, with the busiest days packed close together. The sea days around them feel earned. Black-sand beaches on one island, dense laurel forests on another. The Canaries are surprisingly varied. Of the stops, Puerto del Rosario tends to be the one people talk about: Fuerteventura's sun-baked capital of dunes. Roughly 10 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. MSC Fantasia has 5 restaurants on board, which means you could eat somewhere different nearly every night. Santa Cruz de Tenerife itself is worth spending some time in. Don't just treat it as a departure point. And a February cruise to warmer water? Hard to argue with that when it's cold at home. Sometimes the best trips are the ones you just go ahead and book.
