Check the voyage itinerary
Arriving by ship, you are met by a wide harbour backed by dry hills and the bright Atlantic light of the Canary Islands. Nearby, this port offers a relaxed small-town atmosphere, black volcanic shores, banana plantations and dramatic mountain scenery rising above the coast.
Arriving in Ceuta by sea, you are welcomed by a busy harbour set between the Mediterranean and steep, rugged hills, with a distinctly Spanish city rising just beyond the port. Nearby, you can explore the waterfront, the old fortifications and viewpoints over the Strait of Gibraltar, while the town itself feels compact, sunlit and shaped by a mix of cultures.
Arriving in Cadiz by sea, you approach one of Spain’s most atmospheric Atlantic ports, with busy docks giving way nearby to a compact old city set on a narrow peninsula. A short trip from the quay brings you to bright plazas, palm-lined seafront promenades, historic streets and wide ocean views that give the city its relaxed, sunlit character.
Arriving in Tangier, you meet a busy strait port where the Atlantic and Mediterranean worlds seem to overlap, with ferries, cargo traffic, and hills rising beyond the harbour. Nearby, the old city and waterfront offer white facades, layered streets, and wide views toward the sea, giving the place an energetic, slightly windswept atmosphere.
Arriving by ship in Casablanca, you are greeted by a vast working harbour and the broad Atlantic coast, with the city rising beyond the port in a mix of modern buildings and older quarters. Nearby, visitors can head toward the waterfront and the monumental Hassan II Mosque, while the city itself feels busy, urban, and unmistakably maritime.
Arriving in Arrecife, you are greeted by a low, volcanic coastline, bright Atlantic light, and a working harbour with the whitewashed town stretching nearby along the water. Close to the port you can look out for the city’s seaside fortifications, calm urban beaches, and Lanzarote’s distinctive landscape of black lava and ochre hills beyond.
Arriving in Puerto del Rosario, you come into a practical Atlantic harbour backed by low, sunlit hills and the dry landscapes typical of Fuerteventura. The town nearby feels relaxed and unpretentious, with waterfront walks, open views of the sea, and a gateway feel to the island beyond.
Arriving by ship in Las Palmas, you enter a broad working harbour backed by a lively Atlantic city and the dry volcanic landscapes of Gran Canaria. Nearby, visitors can head toward the long Las Canteras beach, the old quarter of Vegueta, and waterfront promenades that mix Canarian character with an easy, sunlit holiday atmosphere.

Choosing a tall ship cruise is more than just booking a vacation; it is an invitation to experience the timeless romance of the sea. Unlike modern, crowded cruise liners, a traditional sailing vessel offers an intimate atmosphere where the sound of the wind in the canvas replaces the hum of engines. Taking part in such a unique voyage allows you to connect with maritime heritage while enjoying the comforts of a modern leisure cruise. Whether it’s the thrill of seeing the horizon from a wooden deck, the spectacular sight of a full press of sail, or the chance to visit hidden coastal gems inaccessible to larger ships, a tall ship voyage offers a sense of freedom that is simply unmatched. It is the perfect choice for travelers seeking authenticity, tranquility, and a truly luxury sailing experience that stays with them long after they return to shore.
