Canary Islands Escape – Funchal & Las Palmas
About this cruise
No complicated itinerary, no back-to-back transfers, just the ports, the ship, and the sea in between. This 7-night sailing from Funchal on January 26, 2027 visits Arrecife, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Santa Cruz de la Palma, Santa Cruz de Tenerife and Puerto del Rosario. A few ports come in quick succession, which is great for sightseeing but means you'll appreciate the sea days when they arrive. Sun all year round, volcanic landscapes, and more variety between islands than you'd expect. Santa Cruz de Tenerife stands out. It's Where Teide watches over the harbour. Around 11 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. From casual buffets to proper sit-down restaurants, MSC Fantasia has 5 dining spots on board, most of them included. A January sailing is basically an excuse to chase the sun for a week or two. All in all, it's a solid trip.
