Volcanic Trade Winds – Lanzarote, Funchal & Gran Canaria
About this cruise
There's a reason 7-night cruises are the most popular length. This one sails from Santa Cruz de Tenerife on December 28, 2026 and visits Arrecife, Puerto del Rosario, 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 12 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. While everyone else deals with the December cold, you'll be somewhere warmer. And floating. Good route, good ship, good timing. It all lines up.
