Le Bougainville, 8 Night Atlantic Odyssey from the Canary Islands to the Iberian Peninsula ex Gran Canaria (Las Palmas), Canary Islands to M

PONANT invites you to discover exceptional sites during this brand-new cruise between Spain and Portugal, the Mediterranean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean. Enjoy this unforgettable 9-day journey aboard Le Bougainville, combining stunning island landscapes and cities brimming with history.

Throughout your journey, you will benefit from an excursion included per person per port of call, to choose from a selection offered by PONANT. During this cruise, admire the volcanic and verdant landscapes of Santa Cruz de La Palma, explore the Garajonay National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, from La Gomera, or walk along the levadas, the irrigation channels that were dug out of the mountain by hand in the 19th century, from Funchal. The diversity of experiences on offer promises you intense and varied moments.

Your cruise will begin on the island of Gran Canaria, in Las Palmas. Then you will sail to Lanzarote, where you will admire the volcanic landscapes that are typical of the area. Your ship will then drop anchor at La Gomera. This tiny island with lush vegetation is a UNESCO World Heritage Site due to its biosphere reserve.

After calling at Santa Cruz de Tenerife, from which you will be able to discover the wonderful volcanic landscapes of Teide National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, you will leave Spain for Portugal and Madeira, the ‘island of eternal spring’. Discovering the levadas, a clever irrigation system widely used on this mountainous island for transporting water, will also provide an opportunity to admire the beautiful scenery.

You will then sail along the Strait of Gibraltar and immerse yourself in the multicultural charm of Tangier.

Finally, you will head to Málaga, end of your cruise.
