Fri 05Jan2024         Fuerteventura, Canary     11:59 AM          8:00 PM        Docked

Fuerteventura is a paradise for sun worshippers, beach lovers, and water sport enthusiasts. Located just off the coast of Africa in the Atlantic Ocean, the consistently beautiful weather has earned it the nickname “Island of Eternal Spring.” Busy Corralejo on the island’s north coast, is filled with bars, restaurants, shops, and a town beach. With volcanic mountains colored in saffron reds and beaming greens, powder soft sands, and intense blue surf, it’s no wonder Fuerteventura has been honored as a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve. Enjoy scenic tours of the island’s natural splendor with stops at La Alogia Eco museum, Casa Santa Maria and one of the island’s aloe vera farms.  Fuerteventura’s culinary scene revolves around the natural bounty of its surrounding waters with fresh fish and calamari as menu staples. Other notable island specialties include its world-famous goat cheeses and succulent traditional roasted lamb that’s prepared with a touch of Spanish culinary tradition.  There’s a strong surf culture on the island and you’ll find plenty of eclectic surf shops along the beaches during your Fuerteventura cruise. The Cosmo Centro Comercial has plenty of exciting tax-free options for keepsakes and souvenirs.

Sat 06Jan2024        Las Palmas, Canary Islands      7:00 AM          6:00 PM        Docked

The extreme and varied micro-climates and vegetation you experience are what have earned this lovely island the nickname, “The Small Continent.” From the rugged coastline to the stretches of lovely sand beach, a variety of natural wonders impossibly fit onto this single island. Eco-enthusiasts are drawn to Gran Canaria for its hiking, horseback riding, and watersports. Spend a day in the Agaete valley where you can visit a local farm for a taste of the island wines, cheese, and cakes. On your cruise to Gran Canaria, you’ll also find the capital city of Las Palmas to be a cosmopolitan and cultural center of the Canaries. Stroll down the bustling shopping streets, tour a museum or two; sip a cocktail at a trendy nightclub while exploring this sultry city. The local cuisine is an eclectic combination of Spanish, African, and South American influences and fresh seafood is always on the menu. Soak up the sun and the views of the tropical landscape. The rich, rich green forests of the Canary Islands sweep across from north to south and the rolling dunes of the island desert stretch to the horizon.

Sun 07Jan2024      Tenerife, Canary Islands  7:00 AM          6:00 PM        Docked

Beyond its steep and rugged coastline, Tenerife is a cultural and natural wonder waiting to be explored. Discover mysterious step pyramids at Güímar, meet the world’s largest collection of parrots at Loro Park, or take in a show at the ultra-modern Tenerife Auditorium. Foodies will have fun sampling the fresh fish, famous cheeses and sumptuous wines of the island. Of the 7 islands that comprise the Canary Island archipelago, Tenerife stands out as the largest. Depending on your mood and what you are looking to get out of your Tenerife cruise, there are things to consider. For one, the island offers a vastly different terrain depending on where you go. The northern part of the island is quite verdant, so expect the climate to include more rain. In the south, you’ll find it much more arid and dry emulating more of a desert climate.

Much like the famous Bogart and Bergman film of nearly a century ago, this Moroccan city evokes a certain romanticism of an exotic coast and culture that few other places do. Casablanca is a vibrant coastal city set along the Atlantic seashore of North Africa. It is Morocco’s commercial hub and considered a holy city to many, thanks to its abundance of historic mosques and carefully preserved Moorish Islamic architecture.
