The Canaries are a group of seven volcanic islands in the Atlantic off the North West coat of Africa. Canary Island Cruises tend to be offered at the beginning of the European cruising season and the end as temperatures can become unbearable throughout the middle of summer.
A typical Canary Island cruise is 10 nights from the UK or 7 nights from Barcelona or other western Mediterranean ports. Each cruise normally visiting as many as five, though more often four different islands. If you are taking a Canary Island cruise from the UK, then you are likely to visit Madeira at some point on your cruise.
During the spring and autumn the Canaries offer a more stable climate than most places, which is why it is the best time of the year for Canary Island Cruises.
