A sunny port city in northwest Spain with easy access to the stunning Santiago de Compostela, La Coruña is a fantastic destination on any cruise itinerary; home to fantastic food, beaches perfect for sun lounging, and a charming old town overflowing with culture, A Coruña alone is worth spending as much time in as possible. However, this port is also your entry point to Galicia – a breathtakingly beautiful region of Spain – and Santiago de Compostela – a historic pilgrimage site home to awe-inspiring architecture, sensational sightseeing, and even more incredible culture. Whether you decide to travel inland, or make the most of everything A Coruña has to offer, you’re in for a treat when you travel here.

Despite its impressive modernity as a major city, Cádiz is one of the oldest continually-inhabited cities in Western Europe and an urban centre dominated by well-preserved historical landmarks – most of which can be found in Casco Antiguo, the Old Town within the remnants of Cádiz’s city walls. That doesn’t mean you won’t find any modern comforts here, though; while you’re sightseeing, you can expect to enjoy flavourful food from fantastic restaurants, comfortable cafes, and more. Sitting on Spain’s southern coast, the Port of Cádiz is also a short trip from Seville – a stunning Spanish city boasting its own unique culture and unique historical landmarks. So, if a tour of Seville is on the agenda, you’ll have no trouble getting there and back when you disembark here.

With its mix of rich history, Andalusian charm, and sunny beaches, Málaga is a Spanish delight full of culture and life.

For the beach-goer, Playa del Postiguet is within close proximity to the city promenade and has perfect facilities for a full day on the beach. For the best views, be sure to head up to Santa Bárbara Castle with your camera and take some snaps that you’ll always remember.

Wander through historic streets, explore stunning architecture, and relax by the beautiful Mediterranean shores in this vibrant Majorcan city.

With a history dating back to the 5th century and the accolade of European Capital of Culture 2013, in Marseille you’ll find an old city full of charm to explore and pretty modern districts alike.
