Canary Island Explorer – Funchal & Las Palmas

About this cruise

You board in Santa Cruz de Tenerife on April 5, 2026 for 7 nights visiting Arrecife, Puerto del Rosario, Santa Cruz de la Palma, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria and Funchal, and you come back from this kind of trip wondering why you don't do it more often. A few ports come in quick succession, which is great for sightseeing but means you'll appreciate the sea days when they arrive. Black-sand beaches on one island, dense laurel forests on another. The Canaries are surprisingly varied. Don't rush through Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, which is known as Year-round sunshine on a volcanic island. Around 10 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. MSC Musica keeps you well fed. 4 places to eat, with 3 included in the fare and a few specialty spots if you're in the mood. Families and groups will find plenty to do: waterslides, shows, multiple pools, and something for every age. If you can, add a night in Santa Cruz de Tenerife before boarding. It's a good city to wander. Timing-wise, spring usually means comfortable temperatures and lower prices than peak season. All told, 5 ports across 7 nights covers a lot.
