LUXURY CHARTER CRUISE FROM
GREECE TO THE CANARY ISLANDS
Dive into your next adventure with Valinor!
Every October, our catamaran will be journeying from Greece to the Canary Island, taking a moment to visit some of the most captivating ports of call along the way. This longer voyage is perfect for travelers looking to accumulate more miles and get their sea legs or tourists that want the luxury cruise experience minus the hassle of crowds and long queues.
We offer four one-week trip sections that can be booked separately or in combination:
Athens – Palermo
Palermo – San Antonio (Ibiza)
San Antonio (Ibiza) - Tenerife
Tenerife - Mindelo
Much like on most luxury cruises, we will mainly sail at night to reach each destination on the itinerary. This way, your nights will be spent spotting dolphins, whales, turtles, and other marine life or enjoying a gourmet meal under the light of the moon while striking up conversation with other guests. You’ll then have the entire day to explore to your heart’s content and discover all sorts of attractions once we make port. As always, your safety comes first. For this voyage, we’ll have a dedicated three-man crew, including two accomplished Offshore Skippers with German SHS licenses.
