Why sail this route
You unpack once and let the ship do the travelling: 3 countries over 8 nights, starting in Gran Canaria and finishing in Arrecife, with a new port waiting most mornings instead of airports and hotel check-ins.
The pacing runs to 6 port days and 3 days at sea — time to enjoy the ship between stops.

About This Cruise
The 8 Night Canary Islands and Madeira is a 8-night one-way itinerary aboard MSC Fantasia. You board in Gran Canaria and disembark in Arrecife, calling at 6 ports across 3 countries along the way.
In sequence the voyage takes in Canary Islands (Gran Canaria, St Cruz De La Palma, Tenerife), Fuerteventura (Puerto del Rosario), Madeira (Funchal) and Canary Islands (Arrecife).
As a one-way sailing you'll fly into Gran Canaria and home from Arrecife, so it's worth checking the two gateways before you book. Longer hops are crossed on the 3 days at sea, keeping daylight hours for the ports. Sailing dates, cabin availability and fares vary by season — use Check Dates & Prices for live pricing, or call our team to talk through the options.
