Highlights Lisbon to Barcelona Cruise
We leave the lively culinary and creative hotspot of Lisbon and its intermingling of tradition and modernity as irresistible as the stunning Azulejos blue tiles at every turn.
Sail south past super-stylish Cascais and Comporta to follow the Algarve’s sun-warmed coastline and amber cliffs to Cadiz.
Here, seduced by fiery flamenco and fried-fish tapas from the freidurías, we wander the sinuous streets of venture inland to home-of-sherry Jerez, ever-elegant Seville, and prancing horses.
Threading the Strait of Gibraltar, we meander the Spanish Mediterranean to Málaga, our entryway to Andalusia, soul-stirring Grenada, vineyards of Ronda, and ancient olive groves to continue along a coast forever bathed in sunshine.
