You’ll feel like you’re in another world when visiting the remote La Gomera, the wildest island in the Canary archipelago. Deep waters, towering cliffs over the sea, and small fishing ports are just some of the elements that will leave a lasting impression on all visitors. We then transition to the festive atmosphere of Las Palmas, the capital of Gran Canaria, a perfect contrast to its vast stretches of land and deserts. Here, Croisieurope guests can explore the Bandama crater, the remnants of an extinct volcano. Known as a place of pilgrimage, Teror also houses some genuine historical wonders, including the statue of the island’s patron saint.
Lanzarote
To conclude this journey in style, we’ll reach Fuerteventura, the first island to emerge from the Atlantic Ocean, offering unparalleled landscapes shaped by erosion. As a final stop, La Belle des Océans will anchor on the outskirts of Lanzarote, where you’ll be captivated by landscapes of black lava, punctuated by green oases and stretches of azure-blue water meandering along the coast.
The itinerary proposed by La Belle des Océans will be available from November 2023 to April 2024, allowing you to reach the archipelago of eternal spring, characterized by mild temperatures, rich cultural heritage, and breathtaking landscapes.
