Embark on a festive maritime odyssey along the shores of Western Europe for Christmas. Begin your journey in the historic port of Brest, France. Sail to Santander on the Bay of Biscay to walk along its pristine beaches. On the rugged Atlantic coast is Vigo, renowned for its seafood and maritime legacy. The journey then continues to the ancient port of Cadiz, Spain, for optional tours to Seville and the iconic Rock of Gibraltar. Lisbon, Portugal, beckons with its rich history and vibrant atmosphere followed by Leixoes, the gateway to Oporto. The final port of call is Zeebrugge, Belgium, providing access for optional tours to the enchanting medieval city of Bruges. This sailing promises an immersive blend of history, culture, and the best of Christmas at sea.

Brest

Santander
Though much of ancient Santander, Spain was lost to fire in the 1940s, the city is popular with tourists due to its bustling beaches, historic landmarks like the Cathedral of Santander, and rich local seafood from oceanside restaurants and market stalls. 

Cadiz
The ancient seaport of Cadiz is a testament to Spain's seafaring history. From charming plazas to sun-drenched beaches, the city invites exploration of its cultural richness and Andalusian allure.

Zeebrugge
Zeebrugge, nestled along Belgium's coast, offers maritime history and serene beauty. Explore the historic port, visit the Maritime Museum, and savour Belgian cuisine at seaside cafes. With picturesque views of the North Sea, it's a charming retreat for those seeking a refreshing coastal experience.
