Volcanic Bloom – Tenerife, Funchal & Lanzarote
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 Las Palmas de Gran Canaria on January 8, 2027 visits Puerto del Rosario, Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Funchal and Arrecife. There's a nice rhythm here: explore a port, recover at sea, do it again. You never feel rushed or restless. Sun all year round, volcanic landscapes, and more variety between islands than you'd expect. Santa Cruz de Tenerife alone is worth the trip, Where Teide watches over the harbour. Around 11 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. At 185,010 gross tons, Costa Smeralda is big enough that you can find a quiet corner or a crowd, depending on your 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 Las Palmas de Gran Canaria before boarding. It's a good city to wander. A January sailing is basically an excuse to chase the sun for a week or two. Worth booking. That's the short version.
