On Christmas Eve we’ve even arranged a special carol service on board, while on Christmas day there will be a Christmas Service and a visit from Santa Claus.
Please note: all shops are closed in Gibraltar on Christmas Day.


Casablanca, Morocco

Casablanca is a legendary Moroccan city offering a cosmopolitan combination of ancient and modern. Enjoy a truly exotic Boxing Day: browse the vibrant bazaars; explore the labyrinth of white-washed stone alleyways along the Old Medina, head to the beachfront promenade, or admire the unique Hassan II Mosque.


Arrecife, Lanzarote, Canary Islands

On to the dazzling Canary Islands capital, Arrecife. Perhaps visit the local beach, or the salt water lagoon surrounded by fishermen’s houses. An optional tour to Timanfaya National Park gives you the perfect opportunity to experience a live volcano.


Las Palmas, Gran Canaria, Canary Islands

Deserts, beaches, mountains and valleys: welcome to Gran Canaria. Our port of call here is Las Palmas, a town of great historical and cultural interest, with highlights including the Cathedral Santa Ana and the Museo Canario. Las Palmas is also within easy reach of the famous Playa del Inglés beach.



Santa Cruz, Tenerife, Canary Islands

Largest of the seven sun-kissed Canary Islands, the beautiful volcanic isle of Tenerife is blessed with a dry, warm climate all year round and boasts richly varied scenery ranging from lush greenery to rugged mountains. Here we offer an optional excursion to the island's huge volcano, Mount Teide, Spain's highest mountain.


Funchal, Madeira

During your time in Funchal you will welcome in 2008 in style with a special dinner and New Year’s Eve party night on board. You will also be able to admire the island’s spectacular firework display, as the sky becomes illuminated with fireworks set off from 50 points.
