Cruise Description

Uncover the lush, mountainous side to Spain as we sail along its northern shores. Delight in the awe-inspiring beauty of the Cantabrian Mountains, the limestone cliffs and deep valleys of Urkiola Natural Park, and the pristine Gorbeia Natural Park. Immerse yourself in diverse Spanish lifestyles; Cantabria offers mountain hikes and the spirited Jota Montañesa dance, while the Basque Country is known for its Rioja, pintxos, bertsolaritza (improvised poetry), and the traditional Basque pelota ball game. We’ve also timed your cruise to coincide with the vibrant Aste Negusia Basque festival. Admire remarkable art and architecture created to rejuvenate the cultural landscape, such as Bilbao’s iconic Guggenheim Museum.
