Atlantic Islands from Gran Canaria, 7 March 2026 (7 nights)

The epic Caldera de Bandama is a volcanic crater stretching 1,000 metres in diameter. Thanks to the observation platform you can enjoy the sweeping views from the top, or – for the brave – take the adventurous hike down into the crater itself.

This excellent, informative museum – and originally Christopher Cloumbus’ house before he embarked upon his travels - is dedicated to the history of the famous explorer. Visitors will find his personal possessions, drawings, diaries and a portrait, as well as two talkative macaws.

Specialising in hands-on interaction, the Elder Museum of Science and Technology features weird and wonderful scientific exhibits. With four floors of content, you’ll find everything from physics to biology, art to engineering and even a planetarium.

Among Europe’s most famous city beaches is Las Canteras, a golden-sandy beach with calm waters perfect for swimming and year-round warm weather. Spend the day snorkelling, sunbathing and swimming before filling up for dinner at the restaurants and bars.

Considered the most important monument of Canarian religious architecture, Cathedral of Santa Ana features Gothic, neoclassical and Baroque styles of architecture. Inside, you’ll find more stunning examples of expert craftsmanship as well as a tower from which you’ll see stunning views.

Originally built to defend Arrecife from pirate attacks, Castillo de San Gabriel is conveniently situated in the centre of town. Though it was once a wooden structure which was destroyed by fire, the monument has since been restored and is fascinating to explore.

Arrecife’s main shopping destination, Marina Lanzarote is a trendy waterfront teeming with shops including designer outlets, as well as casual fast-food and restaurants. A walk along the marina will take you past stunning yachts and to where cruise liners dock.

What was once a small fishing port has flourished into the beautiful, natural lagoon of Charco san Gines. Many traditional seafood restaurants and bars have emerged in the area, creating a laid-back hub to find fresh food and enjoy live music on the waterfront.

As the main beach in Arrecife, Playa del Reducto boasts the ‘Blue Flag’, signifying it as good for bathing, cleanliness and possessing great facilities. The calm, crystal-clear waters are perfect for swimming and snorkelling as well as stand-up paddle boarding.

The stunning Our Lady of the Rosary Church is located in the city's centre, situated back from the waterfront. A modest catholic church that was constructed in the 19th century has a unique appearance, with black lava stone with whitewashed walls. Within the church, there is a quaint altar, statues and murals adorning the walls.

This extraordinary museum is located in what was once known as Puerto Cabras (now Puerto del Rosario), in a nineteenth-century home. Don Miguel de Unamuno, a prominent Spanish philosopher and novelist, resided in this home in 1924 while he was exiled on Fuerteventura. Within it, you'll find an array of artefacts from his life, including furniture used by the rebel, who spent 6 months living here whilst being banished from mainland Spain.

If you’re looking for a unique activity throughout your time in Puerto del Rosario, head to the La Alcogida Ecomuseum. Situated to the north of the town, this extraordinary attraction is a living museum where guests can see craftspeople at work. There’s also a cottage, and ancient houses which will make you feel as though you’ve been transported back in time.

Found in the city centre, Funchal Cathedral is an impressive Gothic-style monument, popular with locals and visitors alike. Take a look inside to learn about the fascinating history of the architecture, including the altarpiece ordered in 1510 to 1515.

For unrivalled panoramic views of Funchal Bay and the vast landscape, Monte Cable Car will take you to one of the best vantage points in Funchal. The fifteen-minute journey is a relaxing ascent towards Monte, with a souvenir photo at the end of the journey.

Occupying 70,000 square meters, Monte Palace Tropical Garden is home to a plethora of exotic flora and fauna from all corners of the world. You will get lost in the tranquil beauty of this garden, enjoying the space with black swans, colourful koi and vibrant peacocks.

Thanks to Madeira’s fertile soil, many tropical plants thrive here and Quinta do Palheiro Ferreiro’s gardens are an excellent showcase of this. The most notable collection are the camellias, first planted by the Count of Carvalhal.

If you love hiking or you simply love nature, the Caldera de Taburiente National Park is a must visit. With high peaks, a volcanic crater and several waterfalls, this picturesque area gives you views that are simply out of this world.

Another place on the island that boasts incredible views is the San Antonio volcano. With a visitor centre and lots of hiking trails, you can take in views of the crater and its surroundings.

An active lighthouse situated on the southern end of the island, it was built in 1985. However, the current lighthouse replaced the original lighthouse that stood in its place, which dated back to 1903. A prominent attraction, it offers plenty of photo opportunities.

With beautiful sand stretching for almost a mile, Playa de Las Teresitas is one of the best beaches in Tenerife. Lined with lush palm trees and picturesque mountains, visitors will find spaces to play volleyball or partake in yoga classes, as well as having sun loungers, showers and restaurants nearby.

A short drive from the city, Anaga Country Park is a beautifully preserved area of imposing mountains, deep valleys and numerous beaches. Here, you’ll find a plethora of native flora and fauna across the 35,800 acres of land.
