Canary Islands Escape – Funchal & Las Palmas

About this cruise

A week or so at sea, a few great ports, and nothing to organise once you're on board. This 7-night sailing from Funchal on March 27, 2026 visits Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Arrecife, Puerto del Rosario, Santa Cruz de la Palma and Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. Expect a run of consecutive ports, 5 stops total, with the busiest days packed close together. The sea days around them feel earned. Sun all year round, volcanic landscapes, and more variety between islands than you'd expect. Of the stops, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria tends to be the one people talk about: Year-round sunshine on a volcanic island. Roughly 11 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. 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 Funchal before boarding. It's a good city to wander. And March is a good time to go. Mild weather, things starting to bloom, and fewer people than summer. Sometimes the best trips are the ones you just go ahead and book.
