Lisbon to Barcelona
Departing from Lisbon, set sail on an thrilling tour of the Iberian Peninsula over the next 11 days, imbibing in Moorish history and culture along the way. Starting with a relaxing sea day our first call is a visit to Madeira’s Funchal, a crucial stopping point during Portugal’s golden age of exploration. Another sea day brings us to Morocco’s mainland and Casablanca, for a heady mix of medinas, muezzin calls and minarets. Gibraltar comes next, another strategic island that is overflowing with maritime history. Sailing the Alboran Sea east we’ll explore Motril, an ideal destination for visiting the Alhambra, Grenada’s exquisite 13th century fortress, before traveling on to Cartegena, where you can watch passionate flamenco performances or visit Murcia’s magnificent Cathedral. Alicante, Valncoia and Barcelona complete the cruise.
