What's great about Canary Islands and Atlantic cruises?
Black-sand beaches and lunar-like volcanic landscapes are just two of the things that make a cruise around the Canary Islands so popular. This scattering of islands in the Atlantic Ocean has become a popular pick for party-goers and families alike. They’re packed with history – in Gran Canaria you can walk the cobbled streets of Las Palmas, and on the second smallest island, La Gomera, you can visit the house where Christopher Columbus lived.
If you fancy an underwater adventure, you can try our submarine trip off the coast of Lanzarote. Or, for the best views, climb Tenerife’s most-famous landmark, Mount Teide, or hike through La Palma’s Volcano Trail. A lot of our Canary Islands cruises drop anchor at Madeira, as well – it lives up to its nickname as the Floating Garden, thanks to a blanket of colourful trees that sweeps over the landscape.
If you fancy extending your getaway, you can choose to Cruise & Stay in Tenerife or Gran Canaria. So, you can start or end your holiday with a hike around Teide National Park’s volcanic landscape, or a stint on Maspalomas’ desert-like dunes.
