In the south we offer itineraries combining 3 countries, Spain, Portugal and Morocco, being close to the Canary Islands, Madeira, Portimao, Lisbon, Gibraltar and Malaga as well.
Being the most southwest port in Europe Cadiz is often the entry point for cruises coming into the Med in spring having wintered in the Caribbean and a last European port call in the autumn before crossing back.
The port of Cadiz is located in the centre of the ancient city with 3.000 years of history and culture dating back to the Phoenician and Roman times. Cruise ships dock inside the old town and passengers disembark straight into the beautiful flowered squares and narrow cobbled streets full of charm.
As the entry point to Andalusia, Cadiz has become popular with all types of cruise ships, offering passengers an authentic Andalusian experience locked in time with a slow pace and smiling welcoming locals.
