30-Night Africa from Cape Town

Las Palmas de Gran Canaria is the largest city in the Canary Islands, a Spanish archipelago off the northwest coast of Africa. The city has about 380,000 residents and serves as a major embarkation port for Canary Islands cruises and a regular port of call on Atlantic, repositioning, and West Africa itineraries.

Arrecife is the capital of Lanzarote, one of the Canary Islands in the eastern Atlantic Ocean about 125 km off the coast of West Africa. The island has about 155,000 residents and a landscape unlike anywhere else in Europe: volcanic craters, lava fields, black sand beaches, and an almost lunar terrain shaped by eruptions in the 1730s that buried a third of the island.

Tangier sits at the northwestern tip of Africa, where the Mediterranean meets the Atlantic and Morocco looks across the Strait of Gibraltar at Spain, just 14 km away. The city has about 1.

Cadiz is the actual cruise port marketed as "Seville (Cadiz)" by cruise lines because Seville, Spain's fourth-largest city, is the primary day-trip draw from this port. Cadiz itself is one of Europe's oldest continuously inhabited cities, perched on a narrow peninsula jutting into the Atlantic on Spain's southwestern coast.
