Saffron & Volcanic Ash – Agadir & Fuerteventura

About this cruise

This one leaves Santa Cruz de Tenerife on January 18, 2027 and spends 7 nights visiting Agadir, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria 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. The pace alternates neatly: port day, sea day, port day, sea day. 3 stops with a breather between each one. Sun all year round, volcanic landscapes, and more variety between islands than you'd expect. Most ports give you about 10 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, Costa Smeralda: 5,224 guests, 20 decks. Entertainment, dining, and enough space that it never feels cramped. If you like having options (restaurants, bars, activities, entertainment), a big ship delivers that. Pro tip: fly in the day before. Santa Cruz de Tenerife has plenty to offer, and you'll board relaxed instead of rushed. The timing adds to it: swapping cold weather for sunshine and sea air is the whole pitch for a winter cruise. Hard to ask for much more than that, honestly.
