Le Laperouse, 7 Night Total solar eclipse between the Mediterranean and the Atlantic ex Lisbon, Portugal Return

In the season that sees the sun setting the horizon ablaze, set off towards the unexpected and embark on an exceptional journey along Atlantic and Mediterranean coastlines, a subtle mix of cultures, savours and age-old traditions, to seek out a rare phenomenon offered by the sky: the total solar eclipse. Throughout your break, discover the secrets of this exceptional event thanks to the presence of Joe Rao, meteorologist and eclipse chaser, and Serge Brunier, scientific journalist, author, photographer and eclipse chaser. On this journey, feel the vibrant pulse of Malaga, stroll through the elegant avenues of Marbella, discover the Andalusian soul of Cadiz, gaze upon the cliffs of Lagos and wander the charming streets of Figueira da Foz. Finally, off the Iberian shores, admire — if weather conditions allow* — the captivating spectacle of this rare phenomenon: a total solar eclipse. Let yourself be mesmerised by this suspended moment, when the Moon veils the Sun and reveals its luminous corona.

*We are privileged guests in these places, where we are at the mercy of the weather conditions. As we cannot control the weather conditions, we cannot guarantee the observation of this total solar eclipse. Nevertheless, the Captain will have room for maneuver and will be able to sail towards the most suitable places on the eclipse’s trajectory.
