Trade Winds Passage – Tenerife to Barcelona

About this cruise

If you've got 20 nights to work with, this sailing from Fort-de-France on April 15, 2028 through Pointe-à-Pitre, Castries and Bridgetown, with additional stops along the Caribbean is genuinely one of the better ways to spend them. You get off in Barcelona, which is a good excuse to tack on a few days on land. You do all the exploring first, then the last few days are at sea. It's like a built-in wind-down. Crossing 8 borders through the Caribbean: Guadeloupe, St. Lucia, Barbados, St. Vincent & Grenadines, Grenada, Sint Maarten, Antigua & Barbuda and Spain. You'll notice the culture shift at every stop. Don't rush through Castries, which is known as The Pitons' twin peaks on the horizon. Around 11 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. MSC World Asia joined the MSC Cruises's lineup in 2026. Still has that new-ship feel. The longer time on board means you'll catch several shows, themed nights, and start feeling like a regular at your favourite bar. Families and groups will find plenty to do: waterslides, shows, multiple pools, and something for every age. Timing-wise, spring usually means comfortable temperatures and lower prices than peak season. All told, 9 ports across 20 nights covers a lot.
