Volcanic Heights – Funchal, Lanzarote & Las Palmas

About this cruise

This one leaves Santa Cruz de Tenerife on January 24, 2027 and spends 7 nights visiting Arrecife, Funchal and Las Palmas de Gran Canaria 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 11 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. The timing adds to it: swapping cold weather for sunshine and sea air is the whole pitch for a winter cruise. You start in Santa Cruz de Tenerife and come back with stories from Spain and Portugal.
