Volcanic Slopes – Funchal, Lanzarote & Fuerteventura

About this cruise

There's a reason 7-night cruises are the most popular length. This one sails from Santa Cruz de Tenerife on November 22, 2026 and visits Puerto del Rosario, Arrecife, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria and Funchal. The itinerary clusters several port calls together. Fast-paced for a few days, then the sea days hit and you can catch your breath. Warm weather in any month, with volcanoes as the backdrop. Not bad. You get around 11 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, Costa Smeralda holds 5,224 guests across 20 decks. It's a big ship, with plenty to keep you busy. A November sailing dodges the peak crowds while the weather is still cooperating. Well timed. You start in Santa Cruz de Tenerife and come back with stories from Spain and Portugal.
