Canary Islands Escape – Funchal & Las Palmas

About this cruise

This one leaves Funchal on January 5, 2027 and spends 7 nights visiting Arrecife, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Santa Cruz de la Palma, Santa Cruz de Tenerife and Puerto del Rosario at a pace where every day has something going on but there's always time to just sit and watch the water too. There's a stretch of back-to-back port days, so those days are busy, but the sea days around them give you time to recharge. Sun all year round, volcanic landscapes, and more variety between islands than you'd expect. Most ports give you about 11 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, From casual buffets to proper sit-down restaurants, MSC Fantasia has 5 dining spots on board, most of them included. The timing adds to it: swapping cold weather for sunshine and sea air is the whole pitch for a winter cruise. Whether you've cruised before or not, this 7-night itinerary is a genuinely good one.
